Guaranteed Replacement Ultraviolet (UV) Bulb – 4 Pin on a Single End – 38 Watts – 31.89 Inch Length Lamp – Worry-Free Performance for 1 Year
Our CureUV brand Replacement UVC Light Bulb for Wedeco/Ideal Horizons – ME-20 is a 38-watt germicidal water treatment bulb that has a length of 31.89 inches. The four-pin on a single-end bulb has ceramic as its base material and a bulb shape of T5.
When water is passed through the CureUV’s germicidal UV light, it deactivates the genetic material of the microorganism and renders them incapable of multiplying. UV water purification systems can effectively destroy 99.9% of waterborne microorganisms. It provides a safe solution as this method of sterilizing water is a purely physical process and does not alter the chemistry, pH, or taste of water. Both economical as well as environmentally friendly, this method of water treatment is a much better option to chemicals and their bi-products. With the CureUV Brand UVC Bulb, you can always be sure that your water is clean and safe.
This bulb is available with a shatterproof coating that in case of damage keeps the lamp glass from falling into the unit where is installed. This results in an easy way to dispose of glass if it shatters. You can select this shatterproof option above.
Do I need shatterproof coating?
Although shatterproof coating can lower the intensity of the UV-C bulb by as much as 15%, it is recommended for applications in which it is crucial to avoid potential glass breakage at all costs. These applications include but are not limited to food processing and medical institutions. However, if glass breakage would be inconvenient but not catastrophic, skipping the costly shatterproof coating is quite alright. After all, we do not use shatterproof coating with our glasses and plates at home.
