Pellet Amalgam Lamps

Long known for innovation, LightSources and LightTech take great pride in having pioneered pellet technology for amalgam lamps. This cutting edge technology was developed and patented by LightSources in the United States and by LightTech in Europe.

The major benefit of pellet as opposed to spot technology is that pellet amalgam lamps can be operated to produce higher UV intensity. This provides the benefit of increased UV efficiency, while lamp power is reduced for cost savings.

COST SAVINGS COMPARED TO SPOT AMALGAM LAMPS
• Increased output
• Greater efficiency
• Operation in more extreme ambient environments
• Up to 16,000 operating hours
• Maintaining over 90% UVC output at end of life
• Provided with high efficiency electronic ballast-lamp package

UNIVERSAL INSTALLATION
• LightSources is the only manufacturer to offer universal installation. Lamps function with equal efficiency in both horizontal and vertical operations.
