Germicidal

Water Purification
For Residential and Industrial drinking water, purification of drinking water by UV light is a well-established technology.
Cost effective waste water treatment UV irradiance is an environmentally responsible and cost-effective way to disinfect public waste water discharges.

Bottle water and soft drinks
In the beverage industry UV is commonly used for disinfection and more recently also for the destruction of contaminants such as chlorine.

Fish ponds and pools
Germicidal lamps have an increasing role in fish ponds & aquariums.


Sterile Surfaces
UV Lamps assist in making life more hygienic by providing a safe, simple way to disinfect surfaces.
Micro-organisms breed on surfaces, creating a potential hazard for products and people.
In the case of food and some other surfaces, conventional disinfectants and heat treatment techniques are simply not practical.
Germicidal lamps help fight infection in the areas of:
• Hospitals (TB)    • Food and beverage industries   • Laboratories • Pharmaceutical industries   • Packaging

Compact fluorescent

A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) is a type of fluorescent lamp. Many CFLs are designed to replace an incandescent lamp and can fit in the existing light fixtures formerly used for incandescent lamps.

Compared to general service incandescent lamps giving the same amount of visible light, CFLs use less power and have a longer rated life, but generally have a higher purchase price. Like all fluorescent lamps, CFLs contain mercury; this complicates the disposal of fluorescent lamps.

CFLs radiate a different light spectrum from that of incandescent lamps. Improved phosphor formulations have improved the subjective color of the light emitted by CFLs such that the best 'soft white' CFLs available are subjectively similar in colour to standard incandescent lamps.

Compact fluorescent lamps may provide as little as 50-80% of their rated light output at initial switch on and can take up to three minutes to warm up, and the colour cast may be slightly different immediately after being turned on. This compares to around 0.1 seconds for incandescent lamps. In practice, this varies between brands/types. It is more of a problem with older lamps, 'warm tone' lamps and at low ambient temperatures.

 

 
Fluorescents

 Fluorescent lamps generate more than 70% of all the artificial light in the world but consume only 50% of the energy needed for lighting.
Applications include retail displays, refrigeration cabinets, sports halls, food displays, prisons, hotels, restaurants, shopping centres and many other applications.
