Opto Diode has introduced the fourth device in the UVC series of narrow-spectral-output ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UVLEDs). The new OD-280-003 features a narrow radiation pattern and a wavelength suited for disinfection tasks in healthcare applications and water purification. Hermetically sealed in a TO-46 package, this narrow-spectral-output device is designed for easy integration into new or existing systems.
Ideal for rugged use and long-lifetime operation, the peak emission wavelength of the OD-280-003 ranges from 275nm (minimum) to 280nm (typical) to 285nm (maximum) under test conditions at 25°C. Total power output is 0.68mW (minimum) and 0.75mW (typical). The UVLED’s spectral bandwidth at 50 per cent is 12nm (typical); the half-intensity beam angle measures 9°.
The UVC series of Opto Diode’s UVLED family features operating temperature ranges from -30°C to +80°C and storage temperature ranges from -40°C to 100°C.
