HELIOS II Far UV 222nm Excimer Lamp

Description

*NOTE: HELIOS Far UV series are component-level products (not plug-and-play products). Although they come with a power supply, they still need to be safely mounted in a housing or fixture, and a supporting timing circuit is highly recommended. Check out our Far UV Devices collection for full fixtures (plug-and-play products) with all components built-in.

UV Can’s HELIOS II is the company’s 2nd generation Far UVC excimer lamp series, offering a broad range of product development opportunities in medicine, industry, and research. These lamps, made of ultra-high-purity quartz glass, emit 222nm UV-C light. You can choose to buy bandpass filters separately or opt for modules that come with filters included. Bandpass filters help to reduce potentially harmful wavelengths above and below 222nm.

Now you can disinfect using Far UV even in occupied indoor spaces. Conventional UV-C lights (254nm mercury lamps or 260-280nm LEDs) are limited in that they can only be used safely in unoccupied spaces or completely contained with no leakage. Far UV cannot penetrate the active layer of human skin and is adsorbed by the top layer of dead skin cells. The eyes’ tear layer works to block Far UV, protecting them. This means that HELIOS II Far UV bulbs can target and disinfect air and surfaces even while people are present.

⚠*Please note: WARNING – According to the Photobiological Safety Test IEC/EN62471, humans should not be exposed to 222nm ultraviolet radiation over 22mJ in a day. The time humans can be exposed to 222nm is related to the power of light and distance to the light source. Read the label and any operating manual before using.

Features

• Capable of inactivating a broad range of pathogens, including bacteria and viruses
• Ultra-high-purity quartz glass bulb emits 222nm UV-C light
• Available in various sizes and wattages, 5W to 100W
• Versatile for various product and fixture designs

Benefits

• Suitable for a wide range of applications in medicine, industry, and research
• Safer to use, as they emit light at a wavelength that is absorbed by the upper layers of the skin. This means that they do not penetrate deeply into the skin like other UV wavelengths, reducing the risk of harmful side effects
• Mercury-free for your peace of mind and for the planet

Applications

HELIOS II lamps can be incorporated into research and product development for various industries including but not limited to:
