Ozone quartz lamp

Ozone quartz lamp - is an electric arc discharge lamp with a bulb made of quartz glass and filled with mercury vapor. During operation, such a lamp generates ultraviolet radiation in the range of 100 to 400 nm (nanometers). Ultraviolet radiation with a wavelength of 100 to 280 nm is capable of damaging the genetic material of virus and bacteria cells. Quartz glass, unlike ordinary glass, transmits the entire spectrum of UV radiation, which is the basis for the disinfecting effect of ultraviolet lamps.

At the same time, ultraviolet with a wavelength of approximately 185 nm contributes to the formation of ozone in the air in a significant concentration, which is toxic to humans and animals. Therefore, in the process of quartzing the room in it should not be living beings, and at the end of the process should be thoroughly ventilated room.

Ultraviolet negatively affects the eyes and exposed skin, therefore it is strictly forbidden to look at the quartz lamp during its operation and sunbathe under it. This can lead to retinal burns and skin damage. However, the correct use of ozone germicidal lamps in strict compliance with the necessary safety measures will not cause any harm, and the usefulness of quartz is confirmed by its many years of use in various areas.
