Philips TUV PL-S lamps are compact UVC (germicidal) lamps used in residential water and air disinfection units.
The compact size of the lamp allows for a small system design and design flexibility.

Philips TUV PL-S lamps offer almost constant UV output over their complete lifetime, for maximum security of disinfection and high system efficacy.

Thanks to the single-ended lamp base, lamp replacement is easy.

• Deactivation of bacteria, viruses and other micro-organisms
• Residential drinking water units
• Pond water units
• Air treatment units
• Stand-alone purifiers

Features:

• Short-wave UV radiation with a peak at 253.7 nm (UVC) for disinfection purposes
• Protective inside coating ensures almost constant UV output over the complete lifetime of the lamp
• Special lamp glass filters out the 185 nm ozone-forming radiation
• 2-Pin PL-S lamp base contains a special starter for almost instant starting on electromagnetic drivers
• 4-Pin PL-S lamps are designed for use on electronic drivers
• Warning sign on lamp indicates that the lamp radiates UVC

Benefits:

• Security of effective disinfection over the useful lifetime of the lamp
• High system efficacy because it is not required to over-design the purification system to maintain effectiveness of disinfection
• Good environmental choice because of lowest amount of mercury
