UVC LEDs

UV-C LEDs for UVGI / Disinfection 

 

In order to support  disinfection efforts for COVID 19, omicron variant, and other UVGI requirements we are currently stocking UV LED’s for 275 nm in a variety of packages for design and development as well as one complete light source (UV LED module with heat sink, power supply, cooling fan and power cord).  

 

Our UVC LEDs are rated as 275 nm (270 - 280 nm) wavelength and they are available in few different power levels and styles. Choose from single, chip-on-board, strip, to complete light source module using the specification chart below.  Volume pricing is available for all items noted in the chart below. Longer strip lengths with higher outputs are also available. Lead time will vary by product ranging from 1-6 weeks depending on the item selected and volume required.


LED's have been increasingly used in applications where UV lamps (mercury, xenon, amalgam, excimer) have operated for decades.  Improvements in UV-LED flux density, stability and life hours have made UV LEDs a viable solution for replacing traditional UV light sources such as mercury arc lamps, arch lamps, hot and cold cathode lamps, and grid lamps.  UV LEDs are more environmentally friendly as they do not contain harmful mercury, do not produce ozone, and consume less energy.  Use of UV-C LEDs is rapidly growing in applications such as germicidal (UVGI) for air, surface and water purification.

 

 

UV LED Wavelengths

 

 


Note: Other wavelength LED’s are also available including 310 nm, 365 nm and 405 nm (UVA and UVB). Minimum buy and lead times will vary, but typically start at 25 pcs and 2-3 weeks.  Please contact customer service with your wavelength and quantity to receive pricing and lead times.

UV-C LED Frequently Asked Questions

What are UVC LEDs?

UVC LEDs belong to the category of light-emitting diodes that produce ultraviolet light within the UVC wavelength band (200-280 nanometers). The emitted UVC light is recognized for its capacity to inactivate bacteria, viruses, and various other microorganisms.

What are the benefits of using UVC LEDs over traditional UV lamps in disinfection applications?

UVC LEDs offer numerous benefits over traditional UV lamps in disinfection applications, including:

  • Extended longevity: UVC LEDs are capable of lasting up to 25,000 hours, a significantly longer duration compared to traditional UV lamps, which generally have a lifespan of only 6,000 to 9,000 hours.
  • Enhanced energy efficiency: In comparison to conventional UV lamps, UVC LEDs demonstrate superior energy efficiency.
  • Safety: UVC LEDs are safer to use than traditional UV lamps because they do not contain mercury or produce ozone.

Can UVC LEDs be used for water purification?

Yes, UVC LEDs can be used for water purification to inactivate bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms that can cause waterborne diseases. 

Are UVC LEDs effective against all types of bacteria and viruses?

UVC LEDs are effective against E. coli, Salmonella, Listeria, Legionella, Staphylococcus aureus, COVID-19, influenza, norovirus, among others.

Can UVC LEDs be used for food and beverage processing and preservation?

Food and beverage processors are increasingly using UVC LEDs to disinfect surfaces and reduce the risk of foodborne illness. UVC LEDs inactivate harmful bacteria and viruses by damaging their DNA, preventing them from reproducing.

When choosing UVC LEDs for a specific application, it is important to consider the following factors:

  • The type of microorganisms that need to be killed: Different microorganisms have different sensitivities to UVC light. It is important to choose UVC LEDs with a wavelength and intensity that are effective against the specific microorganisms that you are targeting.
  • The size and shape of the area to be disinfected: UVC LEDs emit light in a directional beam. The shape along with the size of the area requiring disinfection will determine the number and placement of UVC LED fixtures.
  • The intensity of UVC light required: The intensity of UVC light required will vary depending on the type of microorganisms to be inactivated, and the distance from the UVC LED fixture to the surface being disinfected.
  • The desired lifespan and energy efficiency of the UVC LEDs: UVC LEDs have a lifespan of up to 25,000 hours. However, the intensity of UVC light emitted by LEDs will decrease over time. It is important to choose UVC LEDs with a lifespan and energy efficiency that meet your needs.
  • The safety requirements of the application: UVC light can be harmful to human skin and eyes. It is important to install UVC LED fixtures in a way that avoids exposure to humans.

What are the main factors to consider when choosing UVC LEDs for a specific application?

When choosing UVC LEDs for a specific application, you need to consider the following factors:

  • The type of microorganisms you need to eliminate
