Metal Halide UV Lamp

Metal halide lamps are mercury vapor lamps with the addition of metal halide salts. The metal halide salts are added to create specific wavelength lines of ultraviolet radiation to match the sensitivity of the photopolymer be cured.Metal halide salts are compounds composed of metal and halide salts elements such as Iodine and Bromide within the lamp to perform halogen cycles.

The electro-negative halogens chemically react within a lamp to cause a reaction in which the metals take on a positive charge. As the internal temperature of the lamp increases to the vaporization temperature of precisely dosed metals, the positive ions being produced allow the metals to release their outer electrons causing UV radiation output at specific wavelengths.

Special ballasts are required for metal halide lamps. These ballasts have a higher open circuit voltage and special output waveform (crest-factor). This feature also extends lamp life while keeping the mercury and heavy metals within the lamp structure in a plasma state during temperature and voltage variations.

UVSMT work directly with the Lamp manufacturer and machinery OEMs, and offer Lamp manufacturer and machinery OEMs bases for Metal halide lamps.
