GERMICIDAL
LAMPS
Germicidal lamps are typified by an intense emission at 253.7nm (short wave ultraviolet), accompanied by lesser amounts at certain other discrete wavelengths in the ultraviolet, visible and infrared regions of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. Such lamps are prevalent in all phases of industry, medicine and research and are used because of their abiotic effect and ability to produce photochemical changes in organic and inorganic substances. No optical filtering is necessary because the presence of visible light does not adversely affect their use. |

| Germicidal lamps are used in water treatment systems to purify and destroy bacteria and toxic substances in water. The elimination can result in pyrogen-free water with objectionable odors removed and containing no dangerous chemical by-products. | ||||
| With drinking water this can eliminate chlorine, chlorinated organics and odors. Industrial effluents can be made to conform to strict water quality standards relating to the toxicity of industrial effluents. Operating rooms, isolation areas, kitchens, patients’ rooms, and other nursing care facilities make extensive use of germicidal lamps to maintain a low bacterial count in the air. | ||||
| They are also used in poultry brooder rooms, laying houses, incubators and hatcheries, stables and other animal pens, and also veterinaries. In fact, wherever disease may be transmitted by air currents, germicidal lamps are in general use. | ||||
| Product protection is another major application for germicidal lamps. They are used in such varied places as walk-in refrigerators and meat holding rooms, bakeries, wineries, dairies, bottling plants, and the pharmaceutical industry. | ||||

Many lamp models available The Spectroline® X-15G, XX-15G and X-30G germicidal lamps are designed to be used in many of the above applications. However, Spectronics Corporation also manufactures ultra-high intensity germicidal grid lamps that are ideal for killing a wide range of disease-causing microorganisms. Please consult our Customer Service Department for complete details and specifications.

Safety precautions should be observed by all personnel working near and around germicidal lamps. This can be accomplished by protecting the eyes with Spectroline® UVG-50 UV-absorbing goggles or the UVF-80 face shield. The use of protective clothing is advised as well. Failure to take these precautions can result in severe burns to the eyes and skin.
Spectroline E-Series UV hand lamps are the most powerful units available of their type. These units are perfect for applications where a compact, lightweight lamp is desired. Our E-Series UV lamps feature a silver-anodized aluminum housing that makes the lamps both attractive and durable. A corrosion-resistant, specular-aluminum reflector optimizes UV irradiance. For even greater comfort and convenience, slide our E-Series lamps into the Spectroline SE-140 lamp stand or CH-180 carrying handle.

To provide an instant hand grip, the CH-180 is available. This carrying handle readily mounts onto the lamp to facilitate hand-held applications.

There’s a Spectroline meter that’s perfect for your needs. Two distinct series ensure easy measurement of the complete ultraviolet range plus blue light. Designed for maximum versatility, each radiometer offers a variety of features to meet virtually any application. You can select a radiometer that measures a single wavelength region or one that can measure up to five different wavelength regions with interchangeable sensors. Extended sensor life. Rugged, silicon photodiode is sealed and fixed in metal quartz package to protect against adverse effects of shock and humidity. This virtually eliminates the possibility of photodiode fracture and extends the sensor life, resulting in improved response and linearity. Zero light leakage. Liquid- and water-resistant sensor housing is built with a series of baffles and unique self-sealing mechanism to help eliminate light leakage completely. More accurate. Sensors are designed with a broader and better defined bandpass interference filter. Optical stacks are assembled in Class 100 clean workstations, so sensors yield consistent results with unsurpassed accuracy. Precisely controlled spectral coverage. High-quality interference filters used in all our radiometers resist degradation and eliminate sensitivity to infrared and other undesirable radiation. Maximum calibration accuracy. All Spectroline radiometers are calibrated for the highest accuracy by pyroelectric methods that are directly traceable to NIST standards. A calibration certificate is supplied with every unit. The sensor heads are provided with special diffusers that ensure accurate cosine response. Since these sensors are configured with a low-offset transimpedance amplifier, their linearity is vastly superior to that of competitive units. This results in an unmatched overall accuracy of better than ±5% on all meters. Reliable. All Spectroline meters are carefully quality-controlled before they are shipped to ensure that each unit has up-to-date calibration and meets our stringent measurement requirements. These meters feature dependable solid-state electro-optical circuitry for long, trouble-free operation and are housed in durable polycarbonate cases. Large numerical displays (LED for the DM-Series and LCD for the DR-Series) are designed for easy readability. Portable
