Emission peak is always very selective focused on precise wavelengths which generally are 365 385 395 405 nm 5nm.
Emission spectrum of medium pressure mercury lamp.
Lamps are divided into families based on the pressure of gas and whether or not the cathode is heated.
Uv medium pressure lamps iron doped the metal halide uv medium pressure iron doped lamps emit uv radiation with peak emission in the uva range at 366 nm and 440 nm.
Uv led lamps radiate a different emission spectrum from the one of traditional mercury uv lamps.
Custom sizes are also available.
The german physicist leo arons 1860 1919 studied mercury discharges in 1892 and developed a lamp based on a mercury arc.
Uv medium pressure lamps lead doped the metal halide uv medium pressure lead doped lamps emit uv radiation with peak emission in the uva range at 357 nm and 420 nm.
Charles wheatstone observed the spectrum of an electric discharge in mercury vapor in 1835 and noted the ultraviolet lines in that spectrum.
Right around 1900 the mercury arc rectifier was developed this luminous device was very important for power conversion.
Medium pressure mercury lamps produce characteristic bands at 313 and 365 nm.
At jelight company we also manufacture low pressure mercury grid lamps.
Mercury lamps emit sufficient energy above 300 nm at only certain wavelengths which are very useful for monochromatic irradiation and so the spectrum can also be used as a point light source providing uniform irradiation.
Thus within the scope of the physical possibilities wavelengths can be selectively generated or reduced in order to adapt the lamps to curing and other applications.
These early low pressure lamps used a lot of mercury today s lamps use a tiny amount of mercury.
Typical spectrum of doped medium pressure lamps for curing and special.
The grid design allows for uniform exposure of the uv light and is available in a variety of sizes.
Hot cathode lamps have electrodes that operate at a high temperature and are heated by the arc current in the lamp.
Emission spectra for different types of quartz and double bore mercury emission spectra.
So it must be considered a virtually monochromatic radiation.
In 1860 john thomas way used arc lamps operated in a mixture of air and mercury vapor at atmospheric pressure for lighting.
Nyc subways were still using original mercury arc rectifiers to convert ac to dc power up until the end of the 20th century.
In medium pressure mercury lamps a plasma that emits uv light is generated by applying electrical voltage.
The mercury vapor arc which is created exhibits the unique property of high emission of light in the ultraviolet region of the spectrum.
This intense light beyond the violet region of the visible spectrum has.
The distribution of energy over the wavelength ranges is depicted on the left.
The spectrum of uv medium pressure lamps can be influenced by doping graphic 5 6.
