XERADEX lamps are Xenon excimer lamps. The lamps are operated in patented pulse mode. They therefore achieve around 4 times the VUV radiated output compared with conventional lamps. Almost 40 % of the electrical energy consumed is emitted as useful 172 nm vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) radiation. XERADEX lamps are among the most efficient lamps on the market.
XERADEX XTU and XIS irradiation systems are complete systems that can be used as stand-alone units or integrated as part of an installation. The systems comprise XERADEX 20W lamps, DBD 20 electronic control gear, special VUV-compatible reflectors and a quartz front panel of high transmittance. The housings are equipped with an in- and outlet for nitrogen purging necessary during operation. Systems in other sizes are available on request.

Advantages of XERADEX 172 nm Excimer UV systems:
• High efficiency (UV energy/power consumption): 40%
• No cooling required in normal operation
• HV lamps permit operation in vacuum environment
• Optimized reflector design increases usable radiation
• Standard housings for multiple applications available
• Compact design
• Full range of lamp sizes and ECGs
• Worldwide design-in and application support
• Mercury-free lamps; low energy consumption
