UV Lights, Lamps & UV LED Torches
Engineering
Product Code: UV LIGHT – VARIOUS
UltraViolet Lights / Lamps & UV LED Blacklight Torches / Flashlights – For many applications including: Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) such as Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) and Dye Penetrant Testing (DPI), Leak Testing, Purity Control, DNA Based Tracer Liquids (e.g. SmartWater Detection), Sanitation, Crime Scene Investigation, Forensic work, Hotel Inspections, Art verification and restoration and many many many more
UV LIGHTS & UV LED TORCHES
We have a very wide range of UV Lights to choose from such as Bulb or LED technology, mains operated, portable battery operated, combinations of both, hand-held, bench mounted, in varying cases and intensities etc. All offer instant or near instant start up times, with no pre cooling etc. Can be switched off and back on instantly. All operate with no external fans making them lighter and quieter, very useful in damp or dusty environments and require less maintenance. They will still stay cool to the touch, especially useful in confined spaces. None of our lamps are affected by magnetic fields. The battery models are fitted with current regulators to keep intensities stable when the battery power fades.
Our UV Lights are divided in to two main categories defining the light source technology the Lights are based on. Standard MPXL 35w & SuperXenon MPXL 35w & 50w (Gas Discharge Bulbs) or LED (Light Emitting Diodes).
Standard MPXL & SuperXenon MPXL (Gas Discharge Bulbs)
These UV Lights use the gas discharge bulbs (Standard MPXL 35w or SuperXenon MPXL 35w & 50w) a similar technology to that of modern car headlights. These types of UV Light typically give much higher intensities giving them the ability to spread that light over a larger beam area, or to be focused over a longer distance or even in brighter conditions such as daylight. Making them more suited to applications requiring the following attributes:-
• Large beam coverage area.
• Illumination from a greater distance.
• Illumination in brighter conditions e.g. daylight.
• Combinations of the above.
LED (Light Emitting Diodes)
These UV Lights & Torches use the latest in LED technology. These type of lights are usually more compact and lighter weight than the previous gas discharge bulb lights. Making them ideal for harder to access areas or areas where a beam can be projected down tight spaces etc. The LED’s also offer a much greater life expectancy, a more uniform beam and No UV-B emissions.
Choosing which type of UV light is right for you? Many factors will affect the best choice of UV Light for your application. To help narrow down the options for you here are a few questions to think about while choosing the light you require.
• Do you require it to be portable (battery operated) or mains powered only?
• Is the size of the lamp critical? (Access or weight issues may limit you to torch size lights.)
• Will you be able to darken the area or will it it be daylight?
• Do you need to illuminate the inspection area from a distance?
• Do you need to cover large areas quickly?
• Do you have specifications or standards to meet? (e.g. Visible light output limits, intensity outputs minimum or maximum, Specific Wavelength requirements etc.)
• The budget – Obviously the wide range of UV lights covered will vary a lot in price, from the basic UV LED torch through to the high intensity portable gas discharge bulb lights.
There are many other things to consider but if you need any assistance in your choice then please do not hesitate to contact us for further help.
Note: Advanced NDT Limited Highly Recommend the use of UV Protection when working with UV Light.
