UV lamps for QUV speakers

UV & Solar Spectrum Simulation

UV wavelengths are responsible for much of the photo-degradation of durable materials intended for outdoor use. The lamps of our QUVs simulate this aggressive part of the solar spectrum, and cause physical degradation in the heart of matter.

We offer different types of UV lamps depending on the end application of your products.

Lamps for QUV

We have taken care to select very high performance UV lamps. We guarantee a stable spectrum throughout the life of the lamps.

We drastically control each batch of lamps produced and thus ensure repeatability of your tests, year after year.

UVA lamps

UVA-340 lamps provide perfect simulation of the solar spectrum, in the UV region, from extinction at 295nm to 365nm.

Our UVA-340+ “plus” lamps allow high irradiance tests to be carried out - up to 1.70 W / m2 / nm - and thus meet all standards and test methods.

UVA-351 lamps simulate UV filtered through window glass for interior applications.

Our Cool White lamps simulate artificial office lighting.

UVB lamps

Our UVB-313-EL (legacy of QFS-40) lamps produce a harsh spectrum made up of wavelengths shorter than the natural extinction on the Earth's surface.

These lamps are rather used in quality control or for applications on materials with very great durability.

UVB-313-EL + “plus” lamps are also available for working at high irradiance.

A detailed analysis of the results must be carried out in order to avoid arbitrating on degradations which may sometimes not be realistic.

UVC lamps

Our UVC lamps are designed to deliver a high intensity spectrum narrowed to 254 nm.

UVCs are very energetic and are used to eradicate viruses and bacteria from surfaces.

At the same time, this very effective disinfection technique causes damage to the materials treated: textiles, paints, plastics, leathers.

We have developed these UVC lamps in order to be able to test the durability of products subjected to the UVC cleaning process.

UVC lamps can only be used on QUV / uvc models
