Mercury medium
pressure lamps offer a broad band emission in the UV- and visible light
spectral from 200 nm to 600 nm and a high power density of around 100
W/cm2. Their strong UV radiation flux results in high penetration depth
and efficient disinfection. This allows the design of compact UV
disinfection plants. Their high UV intensity also makes them
particularly suitable for photochemical processes. |

|
| In the wavelength
range around 200 nm the UV radiation produces OH-radicals from H2O2 |
|
| which are used for the oxidation of
organic materials.
Two Lamp
types are available: |
- DQ lamps: Medium
pressure lamps with high radiation output in the UVC spectrum, powerful
disinfection action,
spectral lines: from 200nm to 600nm
|
- QC lamps: Compact
medium pressure UV lamps with increased output, compact design, good
germicidal and
oxidation action, spectral lines: from 200nm to 600nm
