High-Output, Low-Pressure Amalgam Lamps

Ultravio offers high-quality amalgam UV lamps available in standard or custom configurations. Amalgam lamps provide increased UV power density over conventional low-pressure mercury lamps.

Amalgam lamps, which contain an alloy of mercury and another metal, are offered in two key varieties: ozone-free or ozone-generating. Ozone-free lamps offer an optimized output at 254 nm for disinfection. Ozone-generating lamps are optimized at 185 nm and produce ozone for alternative disinfection applications. These technologies can be combined if required.

Amalgam lamps are more energy-efficient than MPUV lamps but are generally larger in size.

We offer customized amalgam lamp designs to accommodate higher or lower working temperatures to suit the application. Our amalgam lamps remain efficient throughout their long operating lifetimes, maintaining a high ‘end of life’ UV-C output.

Applications for high-output, low-pressure amalgam lamps include:
