Ultraviolet germicidal lamps are basically the same in principle, and they all have the effect of sterilization and disinfection by emitting ultraviolet rays. However, because there are different application scenarios, there are also different types, so that different requirements can be used. Here is a brief introduction to the types of germicidal lamps that are currently on the market.
Ultraviolet germicidal lamps can make different effects by adjusting the internal mercury content and pressure, so it can be roughly divided into three types, namely low pressure, medium pressure and high pressure. The pressure here mainly refers to the pressure of mercury vapor. For example, in some places, due to the complicated internal facilities, the ultraviolet rays alone cannot irradiate all the items. At this time, high-ozone products can be used. In addition to emitting ultraviolet rays with sufficient intensity to disinfect surfaces, such lamps can also kill places that cannot be directly irradiated by producing high concentrations of ozone. For example, in hospital wards, the disinfection power of ozone can be used to kill pathogenic bacteria hidden in bedding and clothing.
If it is a place where people are dense and it is not convenient to evacuate at any time, a UV germicidal lamp with low ozone and low UV intensity can be used. The germicidal effect of this lamp is indeed relatively weak, because it produces low UV intensity and produces very little ozone. But this has become an advantage, because if people are directly exposed to high-intensity ultraviolet rays and ozone, it will cause direct health hazards. Therefore, by effectively controlling the intensity, sterilization and disinfection can be carried out at any time without forcing people to leave the room.
The above is the classification of ultraviolet germicidal lamps from the level of basic functions. Of course, such products can also be classified in other ways. For example, in a place like a laboratory, because the operators have undergone rigorous training and have high scientific literacy, professional equipment can be used. And if it is a product developed for home users, it can be turned on and off at regular intervals with intelligent and automated functions, and potential risks caused by wrong operations can also be avoided.
