Longlife Amalgam
lamps are extremely long life, high power, low pressure lamps.
They achieve up to ten times the UV power density of classical mercury
low pressure lamps and can be used even at higher ambient temperatures
of up to 90°C. Moreover, they are insensitive to temperature
fluctuations.

| Longlife Coating |
Their unique
coating ensures that they do not suffer the unwanted transmission loss
of quartz glass associated with conventional UV lamps. The result is a
virtually constant disinfection action over the total operating life of
the lamp. And up to 90 percent of the UVC output power is delivered for
up to 16,0000 operating hours.

| Great potential for savings |
N number of
lamps, system components, energy consumption and servicing intervals,
thanks to their high power and long life. Amalgam lamps represent an
economical alternative to medium pressure lamps on account of their high
efficiency, long operating life and low operating costs. They save
energy and generate very little heat.

| Ozone generating lamps |
When synthetic
quartz is used as lamp material, additional VUV radiation is emitted at
a wavelength of 185 nm. By choosing the optimal combination of quartz
material and lamp technology the UV output at 185 nm can be increased by
a factor of 5 from that of a standard low pressure lamp.

| The two lamp types at a glance: |
- amalgam
lamps with ten-times UV output, higher operating temperature up to 90°C,
spectrum: line at 254 nm, ozone-free
- amalgam
lamps with synthetic quartz tube, spectrum: lines at 254 nm and 185 nm,
ozone-generating
