Technical Specifications
| UV Light Source | Germicidal UV-C lamps (usually low-pressure mercury lamps). |
| Wavelengths | Commonly use UVA-340 lamps (340 nm peak) to simulate natural sunlight, or UVB-313 lamps (313 nm peak) for faster, more aggressive testing. Xenon arc lamps provide a full spectrum (UV, visible, and infrared). |
| Lamp Power/Life | Typically 40 W per lamp, with an average lifespan of 2,000 to 6,000 hours of effective use. |
| Irradiance Control | Adjustable range, often from 0.1 W/m² to over 1.0 W/m² (or higher depending on model). |
| Temperature Control | Regulated Black Panel Temperature (BPT), often from ambient +10°C up to 80°C or 90°C, with ±2°C stability. |
| Moisture Simulation | Incorporates condensation systems or water spray nozzles to replicate the effects of rain and dew. |
| Capacity | Varies by model; some standard chambers hold 48 specimens of 75x150 mm size. |
| Material | Often constructed with a stainless steel interior and a UV leak-proof casing. |
| Standards Compliance | Designed to meet international standards such as ISO 4892-3, ASTM D4329, and ASTM G-151/G154. |
| This type uses UV | C light to kill or inactivate microorganisms on surfaces of instruments, personal protective equipment (PPE), or in water/air systems, primarily in medical, laboratory, or food industries. |
| Wavelength | Peak emission at approximately 254 nm (specifically 253.7 nm), which is optimal for damaging DNA/RNA of microorganisms. |
| Disinfection Time | Typically rapid, with effective microbial elimination achieved in seconds to minutes (e.g., 60 seconds to 15-30 minutes, depending on the target dose). |
| Safety Features | Built-in safety devices are mandatory, such as a door sensor that cuts power to the lamps immediately when the door is opened to prevent human exposure to harmful UV-C radiation. |
| Power | Lower power consumption compared to weathering chambers, often using 8W or 15W UV tubes. |
