325W Amalgam UV Germicidal Replacement Bulb - 1575mm - 62"

Ultraviolet light, commonly known as UV, is emitted in three different bands: UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C. UVC radiation has a strong germicidal effect; it is irradiated by quartz lamps containing mercury vapor. When an electric current is induced at the poles, an electric arc is generated that ionizes the atoms of this metal, where the electrons increase their energy until they emit photons of 254 nm UVC light, which is highly germicidal.
