Replacement Ultraviolet Sterilizer Lamps

Ultraviolet sterilizer lamps, also known as UV lamps, are innovative devices that utilize ultraviolet light to effectively sterilize with chemical-free disinfection. This makes them indispensable in various industries, such as healthcare facilities and residential environments. One common reason they are used is to purify tap water.

What are Ultraviolet Sterilizer Lamps?

A UV sterilizer lamp is a device that uses ultraviolet (UV) light to eliminate or inactivate harmful microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. UV lamps emit UV-C light to destroy bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. By emitting UV-C light, which has a wavelength range of 200 to 280 nanometers, these lamps disrupt the DNA or RNA of pathogens in water, rendering them incapable of reproduction and infection.

These lamps typically contain a UV light source, a housing unit to contain the light, and a power supply. The UV light source is often a mercury vapor or a low-pressure mercury lamp designed to produce high-intensity UV radiation. The housing ensures safety and optimal performance, usually featuring reflective surfaces that enhance the UV output while protecting users from direct exposure.
