What is a UV LED Module? What are UV LED modules? A UV LED module is a small device that generates ultraviolet (UV) light using solid-state UV light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Compared to traditional UV lamps that use mercury vapor or gas discharge, UV LED modules are more efficient because they utilize semiconductor chips to generate UV light of particular wavelengths. These modules are cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and have a long lifespan. How Do UV LED Modules Work? How to Select the Right UV LED Module? Selecting the right UV LED module is important in achieving optimal output for your application. Different applications, like curing adhesives or disinfection, have varying requirements. Here’s a simple guide designed to help you pick the right UV LED module according to your specific requirements. 1. Selecting the Purpose of the Module’s Application Like with other devices, the UV LED module has its primary application. It can be used for different purposes, like:  •          Curing for drugs, adhesives, inks, and coatings.  •          Disinfection and sterilization of water, air, medical instruments, and other equipment. •          Excitation of fluorescence for diagnostics and lab sensors or non-destructive testing (NDT).  •          Utilization in printing or therapy using radiation in the ...
