Nichia SMD LED UV NVSU119C 375nm 1160mW at 700mA 2.38W Emitter

Nichia is a leading global manufacturer of high-quality LED products and has been a pioneer in the industry for many years. Their research department is known for its innovative and efficient approach to lighting solutions, and they are credited with inventing the blue LED, which led to the development of white LEDs. Durability, brightness, and homogeneity are among the major strengths of the Nichia brand, and their fine selection allows for greater added value for professional processing.

The Nichia SMD LEDs in the UV range are highly versatile and can be used in a variety of applications. The NVSU119C is available with three different wavelengths, and at a 375nm wavelength, it reaches a power of 1160mW, making it ideal for industrial and commercial applications. Fixtures with multiple LEDs can be used for disinfection, plant growth, ink or resin curing, and lithography for medical, industrial, and commercial applications.

It is important to note that UV radiation is invisible to the naked eye and can pose a danger to the eyes and skin even with short-term exposure. Before ordering this product, it is crucial to seek advice from our employees to ensure safety.

Irradiance estimation for a 365 nm UVA LED with 1 Watt Radiant Power: Warning UV danger for eyes and skin

UVA radiation in the wavelength range of 200-400 nm of more than 10W/m² may cause inflammation of the cornea as well as a UV erythema (sunburn) of the skin. The biological effectiveness of the UV radiation varies in the stated wavelength range and is described with the spectral response function (weighting scale) SUV. 

Safety precautions when using UV light sources must be respected, as detailed in  IEC Standard 62471:2006, ‘Photobiological Safety of Lamps and Lamp Systems’, EU-Directive-2006-25-EC or the applicable standard for your country.
