Ultraviolet Purification – L14UT4 UV Light Bulb for Germicidal Water Treatment
Guaranteed Replacement Ultraviolet (UV) Bulb – 4 pin single end – 21 Watts – 17.17 Inch Length Lamp – Worry-Free Performance for 1 Year
The Ultraviolet Purification – L14UT4 UV Light Bulb For Germicidal Water Treatment has a lamp length of 17.17 inches and a four-pin on a single end base. The 21 watts UV bulb gives you a worry-free performance for an entire year. With ceramic as its base material, the T5/T6 shaped lamp has a wavelength range of 254nm. This wavelength helps in destroying the genetics of the microorganisms present in water.
The genetic material of the microorganism is deactivated when germicidal UV light passes through them and makes them incapable of multiplying. Researchers are of the opinion that this method of sterilizing water is a purely physical process. It does not affect the chemistry, pH, or taste of water in the process and is a much better option for chemicals and their bi-products.
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.
