Time is running out to replace curing lamps containing mercury. Starting in just a few months, the EU will gradually introduce a ban on the manufacture, import, export and use of UV lamps with mercury. You may even find it already hard to procure replacement lamps for your drying equipment and the situation certainly will not improve as we near the end-of-year deadline.
What are the options today?
Let’s start by saying that the news is good! Developed at our LAB, also supported by our LED technology experts from C-LED, we have developed different innovative solutions that will comfortably replace your mercury lamps.
- Lifespan 10 to 20 times longer than traditional UV lamps
- Energy consumption reduced by 50% to 70% compared to conventional mercury lamps
- Instant on/off operation, resulting in lower running costs
- Precise power control and adjustment for achieving the ideal surface finish
These new LED lamps have been tested by independent paint manufacturers, all successfully. We have already set up a number of solutions in our laboratory, so that you can test your products and verify the results.
