Germicidal UV Lamps

Germicidal UV lamps emit light at 254nm (UVC), which kills or deactivates many bacteria and other micro-organisms, making it ideal for use in air, water and food sterilization and purification. Some germicidal lamps produce ozone, which is useful for water sanitization. Germicidal UV equipment is used en everything from large municipal wastewater treatment systems to small under-the sink systems for use in the home.

Even though the lamps continue to light, over time, the UV output declines, making the lamps less effective. They should be replaced on a regular schedule, to make sure the system is operating at its intended level of disinfection.

Medium Bi-Pin (MBP) Germicidal UV Lamps

Short wave metal sleeve IRT lamp

Germicidal lamps with medium bi-pin connectors look very much like regular fluorescent lamps, but they are clear instead of frosted. They are made of fused quartz, which allows the UVC light to pass through the tube. Typically, lamps that do not generate ozone are designated "L" and those that produce ozone are designated "VH". The number following the "T" in the part number is the diameter of the tube in 1/8 inches, so, for example, a T5 lamp is 5/8 inches in diameter.

Common part numbers include:
G4 T5 • G4T5 • G6 T5 • G6T5 • G8 T5 • G8T5 • G10 T5 • G10T5 • G10 T5 VH • G10T5VH • G15 T8 • G15T8 • G30 T8 • G30T8 • G36 T5L/4 • G36T5L/4 • G36 T5L/4P • G36T5L/4P • G36 T5VH/4 • G36T5VH/4 • G36 T5VH/4P • G36T5VH/4P • G36 T5L Single • G36T5L Single • G36 T5VH Single • G36T5VH Single • G36 T8 • G36T8 • G64 T5L/4 • G64T5L/4 • G64 T5VH/4 • G64T5VH/4

Pre-Heat (GPH) Germicidal UV Lamps

GPH lamp

GPH lamps incorporate a switch that initially connects a combination filament–cathode at each end of the lamp to preheat them and requires four electrical connections. This allows the use of compact ballasts that are relatively inexpensive. When the arc is struck the filaments are disconnected. There is a slight delay before the lamps start.
