Define the Application
Determine the most suitable use case from the following:
UV Curing: inks, coatings, adhesives in industrial and commercial printing, PCB coating, and packaging.
Disinfection/Sterilization: air, water, or surfaces cleansing.
Fluorescence Excitation: biological imaging or quality control inspection.
Photolithography: semiconductor or PCB exposure.
Machine vision/sorting systems.
All these processes have different requirements for wavelength selection, power and cooling systems, and…
The Right Wavelength
Wavelength | Ideal For |
---|---|
265–280 nm (UV-C) | Germicidal / Disinfection (air, water, surfaces) |
300–320 nm (UV-B) | Phototherapy, lab use |
365 nm (UV-A) | UV curing, industrial inspection, NDT |
395–405 nm | Low-cost curing, scorpion/stain detection |
365 nm is the most common for industrial curing and precision inspection.
Only UV-C 265–280 nm lamps are permitted for sterilization.
Measurement of Total Radiant Power as an Output
Optical power settings can be set to high (W or mW/cm²) to enable quicker and deeper curing along with stronger fluorescence.
Make sure to check for uniform intensity across the array to confirm consistent performance.
For curing, typical targets are:
Greater than 1,000 mW/cm² for high-speed production lines for laser-processed products.
300 – 800 mW/cm² for general or slower curing applications.
Spatial Characteristics and Geometric Configuration of the Radiation Source
Linear Arrays: Suitable for curing by conveyor and for strip inspection.
Matrix Arrays: Suitable for broad area curing and panel exposure.
Make certain that the active emitting area conforms with your part or inspection surface.
If scalability is required, consider modular stacking.
Thermal Management System
Passive cooling is applicable for low-power modules (limited range).
Active air-cooled is common in mid-power applications.
Water cooled is best for high intensity continuous duty cycle operation.
Look for aluminum MCPCB, heat sinks or components with integrated fans.
Electrical Interface
Confirm:
Input voltage (12V, 24V, or 48V DC)
Current draw requirements
Need for constant current driver
Included drivers versus need for external control units
Control and Integration
Look for:
PWM dimming or other forms of dimming control
Trigger/sync inputs for automation
Digital interfaces like RS485, CAN or MODBUS in higher-level systems
Product Robustness and Lifetime
High output power UV LEDs from reputable manufacturers should have:
10,000–50,000 hours lifespan
LM-80 testing or MTTF data
Dust, humidity, or water resistant enclosures with an IP rating.
Additional Options
Changeable optics such as:
Lenses, diffusers, reflectors
UV-pass filters for blocking non-target wavelengths
Calibration for uniformity or spectral binning over-calibration
Protection against overheating and diagnostics on-board
