The Sterilight traditional UV systems use the Sterilume-EX UV lamps. These lamps are a low pressure, regular intensity mercury vapor lamp. They utilize 425 mA of current to fire at a 254nm wavelength of light. At a wavelength of 254nm microorganisms are inactivated, therefore the water becomes disinfected. Sterilume-EX UV lamps have a proprietary stepped 4 pin configuration which couples with the ballast connector. These UV lamps hold a one year warranty.
