Control Odor with UVC Germicidal Technology

UV germicidal lamps which are designed to emit ozone provide effective and cost-efficient sterilization and deodorization. Ozone producing lamps are proven to meet strict air quality regulations in many industrial applications including removing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and odor causing contaminants. UV germicidal lamps are used in many industrial applications worldwide, commercial properties and residences to remove foul odor from the air.

Germicidal lamps are engineered to emit various effective wavelengths such as 254 nm which instantly eliminates bacteria and viruses by penetrating the DNA of cells and rendering them useless and unable to replicate. Germicidal lamps designed to emit 185 nm produce ozone which safely removes odor causing contaminants such as sulfides, mercaptans and ammonia. Ozone breaks these harmful organisms into less complex molecules through a process called oxidation.

UV air sterilization and oxidation systems breakdown water vapor molecules and ambient oxygen into hydroxyl free radicals and short-lived oxygen. Hydroxyl and oxygen provide instant breakdown of gases with very little byproducts.

LightSources Offers Ozone Producing Germicidal Lamps

LightSources is a leading supplier of UV lamps and lighting solutions including highly effective germicidal lamps. We design, engineer and manufacture low-pressure Mercury lamps and low pressure Amalgam lamps with proven proprietary technology. Our low-pressure germicidal Mercury lamps include standard quartz and high output quartz lamps.

Our low pressure Amalgam lamps include proprietary pellet Amalgam technology and Spot Amalgam lamps. Elimination of water causing contaminants depends upon humidity, ambient air temperature, and the type of odor causing contaminants. Our experienced UV lighting engineers provide custom design solutions to meet specific requirements.

UV ozone lamps are used in wastewater treatment plants and sewage lift stations providing a small footprint and ease-of-use with low maintenance. These ozone lamps provide many health benefits by removing harmful contaminants, controlling odor and eliminating exposure to hydrogen sulfide which contributes to ill health effects.  UV ozone lamps provide many benefits such as eliminating the need to purchase, store and dispose of chemicals in providing effective sterilization without chemical byproducts.

LightSources is a leading global supplier of UV lamps and lighting solutions including germicidal lamps used worldwide in water, surface and air sterilization systems. We understand the technology of UV radiation and harness the power with custom phosphor blends and lamp components.
