What is UVC-LED
- The UVC region of the UV spectral range refers to wavelength between 260 nm to 280 nm. In the case of disinfection, the optimum wavelength is in the region of 260nm to 280 nm, with germicidal efficacy falling exponentially with longer wavelengths.
- UV-C LED technology is set to provide new, improved, and expanded solutions in both air and water treatment.
Benefits of UV LED water purifier
UV-C LEDs perform the same functions of conventional mercury-vapor lamps but have many benefits in comparison.
- > Environmentally friendly-conventional UV lamps use heavy metals that are difficult to handle and cost a great deal to dispose of safely
- > Small design footprint-LEDs are much more compact compared to their mercur yvapor counterpart, meaning they can be integrated easily into
- new innovative designs.
- > Instant-on/off-UV-C LEDs work instantly, so there is no need for a warm-up time that is a common constraint of mercury-vapor lamps
- > Unlimited cycling-on/off cycles do not impact the life of the LEDs, meaning there is an unlimited scope for lamp cycling.
- > Temperature independent-LEDs can emit photons from a different surface as their heat emissions. They can be designed so that if UV-C LEDs are being used in water purification, they will not transfer heat into the water.
- > Wavelength selection-One of the greatest benefits of UV-C LEDs is that users can configure them to choose a specific wavelength that is best suited for maximum absorption of light for the chosen microorgani
