What Does UVC LED Mean?

UVC LED is a kind of sterilization technology that has been favored by the public recently, but many people still don’t know what UVC LED is. Today, I will tell you what UVC LED means? What's the function? Let's take a look with UVC LED Handheld Sterilizer Supplier.

First of all, first understand what UVC is. UV refers to ultraviolet rays, which are classified according to different wavelengths. UVC is the short-wavelength segment of ultraviolet rays with a wavelength of 200-280nm, referred to as UVC ultraviolet rays.

UV can destroy the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or RNA (ribonucleic acid) molecular structure of microorganisms, so that bacteria can die or cannot reproduce, thereby achieving the purpose of sterilization. Among all the ultraviolet rays, the short-wave ultraviolet rays such as UVC have the strongest sterilization effect, so they are widely used in sterilization technology.

LED is the abbreviation of light-emitting diode. It emits light through the combination of electrons and holes. This kind of electronic components appeared as early as 1962. In the early days, they could only emit low-luminance red light. Later, other monochromatic versions were developed. Today The light that can be emitted has spread to visible light, infrared and ultraviolet light, and the luminosity has also increased to a considerable luminosity.

UVC LED refers to the way to emit UVC. For example, traditional ultraviolet lamps have always used mercury lamps to emit light. Mercury is very dangerous and mercury lamps have been completely banned. As a new type of ultraviolet sterilization method, UVC LED is the only reliable alternative. Because it belongs to pure physical sterilization and does not contain any harmful substances, the miniaturization of UVC LED components brings more imagination to the application scenarios, many of which cannot be achieved by traditional mercury lamps. In addition, UVC LED also has many advantages such as fast start-up, more allowed switching times, and battery-powered availability.

All in all, UVC LED is a new, more efficient and environmentally friendly sterilization technology. Our company also has UVC LED Handheld Sterilizer on sale, welcome to contact us.
