Decontamination and Disinfection Solutions with Xenon Flash Lamps
Advanced UVC Technology for Surface, Air & Water Treatment
First Light Lamps Ltd specialises in manufacturing high-performance xenon flash lamps for decontamination applications, delivering powerful UVC output in the critical 180-280 nm wavelength range. Our lamps provide effective microbial inactivation for industrial, healthcare, and commercial decontamination systems worldwide.
How Xenon Flash Lamps Enable Effective Decontamination
UVC Light Technology Explained
By precisely controlling the current density within our xenon flashlamps, we can significantly increase the proportion of Ultra Violet C (UVC) output. According to the International Ultraviolet Association (IUVA), UVC light in the 200-280nm range provides the most effective germicidal action against pathogens.
Fill Gas: High-purity xenon for optimal UVC output
Electrode Configuration: Tungsten electrodes with specialised coatings
Operating Voltage: 200V to 20kV+ (application dependent)
Pulse Energy: 1J to 10,000J+ per flash
Repetition Rates: Single shot to 1000Hz continuous operation
