The UV led module has many benefits attributed to its small form factor, dimmability, peak irradiance, stability and homogeneous radiation distribution. These characteristics make it a good choice for incorporating into processes or machinery with limited space, where traditional mercury arc lamps cannot be integrated.
For decades, established water purifier OEMs have relied on low-pressure germicidal lamps for proven disinfection performance in their systems. As the Minamata Convention on mercury enters into force, this market is expanding to include new products that do not use mercury-based light sources.
Safety
UV LED modules are a safer alternative to traditional mercury vapour lamps. As they don’t contain mercury, these irradiation sources can be used in many applications where traditional lamps are banned or prohibited for safety.
The 275 nm UV-C radiation emitted by the LEDs is potent and can disinfect air, liquids and surfaces quickly. It also deactivates bacteria and germs and kills viruses.
UV-C radiation is a powerful disinfectant because it can destroy the DNA of viruses and bacteria and prevent their multiplication. This makes it effective in larger doses.
Efficiency
In addition to the safety and durability features of UV led module technology, one of the critical benefits of this type of technology is its high efficiency. This allows for reducing operational costs over the product’s life.
This technology has great potential to improve existing processes, mainly for applications with heat-sensitive substrates. For example, it can use less power and eliminate the need for makeup air.
HeroesNoble light recently commissioned a new production facility, Europe’s most modern and extensive, for producing UV LED modules. It is equipped with a sophisticated quality concept that achieves a highly efficient flow of materials throughout the whole production process, including chips.
As a result, even chips are qualified in-house, and special micro-optics technology ensures a balanced and uniform UV output for reliable curing processes. With its Plug & Play system, HeroesNoble light has set new production flexibility and efficiency standards. The modules can be easily exchanged within seconds, reducing cleaning and maintenance costs.
Durability
The UV LED module is a highly durable product with robust construction and can withstand vibrations and shocks. This makes it an excellent choice for devices that must be transported and handled.
Another benefit of the UV led module is that it is RoHS-compliant and does not contain toxic mercury used in conventional power lamps. This benefits the environment by eliminating the need to use and dispose of harmful materials.
Moreover, recent technological developments have significantly improved the operational lifespan of the UV led module. This has been achieved by resolving issues with die stabilization that had previously reduced typical lifespans to less than 5,000 hours.
Sustainability
UV LEDs are a sustainable alternative to traditional lamps, such as mercury arc bulbs and fluorescent tubes. They provide many environmental benefits, including lower energy consumption, less waste and safer disposal.
The absence of ozone, a byproduct of many print-curing processes, makes them more environmentally friendly. In addition, they require no heating phase to operate, saving electricity and eliminating the need for cooling air blowers and ozone extraction systems that often generate noise and odour.
The low power requirements of UV LEDs make them a highly versatile solution for a wide range of applications. They are also more durable and vibration-resistant than their predecessor technology, cold compact fluorescent lamps (CCFLs).
