That’s why,
as part of the quotation and order process we are very keen to know and confirm
the exact specifications of the lamp in question. Getting the specification
right first time will help eliminate potential errors in lamp supply that could
result in:
- Inefficient
UV transmission
- Non-fitting
lamps
- Costly
returns
- Unwanted
operational downtime
When asking for an ultraviolet light lamp quote,
the best things a customer can have readily available are:
- Lamp
manufacturer name
- Model
number or reference
- Specification
sheet
That way we
can exactly match it to our product database and any potential errors can be easily
avoided.
However, we
also know that being able to provide all of this information is not always
possible. When this happens what we look for are the basic measurements that will
help us provide the right lamp.
These requirements are (ref image):
1. The overall lamp length (A)
2. The arc
length (C)
3. The
diameter of the lamp (D)
4. Volts of
the lamp (please ensure this is the lamp voltage, rather than the systems voltage),
5. Amps of
the lamp (again, lamp voltage, not system voltage)
6. Dimensions
of the caps (F,G,H,I). If you don’t have those, we can often identify the caps
with a photo.
To help
communicate all of this information, the full specification sheet can be
downloaded and filled out here.
And, don’t
worry if any of these details are not easily available as our team of experts
can often work out the specification by viewing photos of the current lamp. Ultimately,
working together to get the specification right means we won’t supply you with
a replacement lamp that causes issues with your system.
With every
quote, we also issue a product specification sheet that provides peace of mind
and will allow you to reorder in the future with ease.
