We built these UV halogen lamps for one specific job: helping you run plastic aging tests that mimic years of sun exposure—inside a controlled chamber. The whole point is to pack a ton of UV and heat into a small footprint, so you can speed up material degradation right on the shop floor, without having to rework your whole setup. Here’s the thing about the power setup: we go with 400V and 2500W because that’s what plastic aging chambers usually run on, and it’s the wattage needed to push enough energy into the test space. The lamp is 300mm long with a 10mm diameter, so you get a tight, dense zone of heat and UV that fits most benchtop chambers and smaller setups. That kind of power density gets parts hot fast. But it also means your chamber’s cooling and airflow have to be properly matched to the lamp—otherwise the fixture can overheat. Inside, the quartz tube is halogen-filled and coated to hit the UV spectrum used in aging protocols. The coating keeps output steady and shields the filament, so the lamp can handle repeated heating and cooling without the performance falling off. And the R7s connector? It’s a direct, drop-in fit that handles the high current. Wiring is straightforward, replacement is straightforward—just a solid, tough connection that holds up against vibration and thermal expansion. When you’re doing plastic aging work, consistency matters. You need predictable UV exposure and predictable heat. This lamp warms up quickly and delivers stable spectral output, so your cycles run with repeatable results. Plus, the compact size and R7s termination keep installation simple, and the halogen design keeps output steady even through long shifts. Just keep one thing in mind: for the best performance, make sure your chamber ventilation and thermal management are matched to the wattage.
