UVP UVL-14 Upland long wave white light

• Fluorescence analysis in research and quality control.
• Non-destructive testing for surface cracks and defects.
• Sterilisation and disinfection of laboratory surfaces and instruments.
• Curing of UV-sensitive adhesives and coatings.
• Forensic examination of evidence.

Wavelength

Typically long wave UV (UVA, 320-400 nm) combined with white light.

Power supply

Commonly 230V, 50Hz for UK operation, often with a standard UK plug.

Lamp type

Typically fluorescent tubes or LED arrays for both UV and white light.

Housing material

Often robust plastic or metal for laboratory environments.

Typical footprint

For handheld or benchtop units, dimensions are generally compact, suitable for laboratory benches.

Intensity control

Some units may offer adjustable intensity for both UV and white light.

• What is the primary difference between long wave UV and short wave UV?

  Long wave UV (UVA) is less energetic and typically used for fluorescence, curing, and inspection. Short wave UV (UVC) is more energetic and primarily used for sterilisation and germicidal applications.

• Is this unit suitable for germicidal applications?

• What safety precautions should be taken when using a UV light?

• Can the UV lamp be replaced?

• What is the purpose of the white light feature?

Used microscopes are widely regarded as reliable investments when sourced from reputable suppliers. Buyers typically prioritize optical quality, mechanical condition and calibration history. Key considerations include lens cleanliness, stage functionality and electronic components if applicable. Industrial and laboratory users consistently value equipment with documented maintenance records and original accessories. Established brands tend to retain functionality well across decades. Buyers should verify light source operability and request detailed condition reports before purchase to ensure equipment meets specific magnification and resolution requirements.
