Mercury UV Curing lamps are constructed from high quality transparent fused quartz, enabling high levels of ultra-violet radiation to be transmitted. They vary in arc length from 1 inch to 180 inches. The typical power levels of this lamp type range from 200 to 1000 watts per inch. Those operate at 400 WPI or above are generally considered Super UV lamps. Most common UV curing lamps contain mercury and argon with the peak wavelength at 365nm. The operating life of a UV curing lamp is measured in hours of ultra-violet output that drops off gradually throughout the life of the lamp. Generally, standard UV curing lamps emit enough UV to cure for 800 hours. Improved production techniques and higher grade materials have enabled our UV lamps to operate with a life in excess of 1500 hours, when operated in suitable machines under optimum conditions. Standard UV curing lamps have a wide range of industrial applications, such as the curing and drying of inks, varnishes, plastics and adhesives.

强紫外线高压水银灯（简称UV灯）由高品质的纯石英管材制造而成，使紫外线能高程度及大量的穿透，其弧长度/发光长度可由5厘米至300厘米不等，常见功率为每厘米30W至200W，超大功率UV灯一般在每厘米200W或以上操作，该灯光谱有效范围在350-450nm之间，主波峰为365nm，有700多个品种，功率由100w-25kw.UV灯的寿命一般指其能维持足够的能量进行操作的时间，在此期间其能量逐渐衰减直至低于可接受的范围为止，一般情况标准的UV灯能放射足够的UV能量达800小时.UV固化广泛用于竹木地板、家具、装饰材料、印刷、印铁制罐、塑胶涂装、标牌、电路板、光盘等行业；也是半导体、电子元件、液晶等粘接固化的理想光源.
