Silanna UV Unveils Enhanced Next Gen SF2 230nm Far UVC LED
Silanna UV has officially announced the introduction of its latest innovation in UV LED technology, the SF2-3T9B5L1-TB, which boasts significant enhancements over its predecessor, the SF1 series. This groundbreaking far UVC LED operates at UVC wavelengths down to 230nm, achieving a typical wavelength of around 233nm. The new model features an impressive doubling of output power along with a remarkable improvement in temperature stability, setting a new standard in the field of UV technology.
Key Features of the SF2 Far UVC LED
The SF2 is tailored for precision detection and effective disinfection in challenging environments. One of its standout attributes is the collimated ball lens, enabling a focused beam angle of 17°, which makes it particularly suitable for detecting specific compounds in various substances. Notably, it excels in the identification of nitrate (NO3) and nitrite (NO2) levels in water, as well as measuring carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitric oxide (NO) in gaseous form. Fully utilizing these capabilities, the SF2 is ideal for a spectrum of applications including chemical and biological analysis, water quality assessments, gas sensing, liquid chromatography, and effective disinfection processes.
Environmental Safety and Durability
An impressive aspect of the SF2 LED is its environmental safety. Unlike traditional UV lamps, this LED model is devoid of mercury, highlighting its eco-friendly edge. The robust design of the SF2 surpasses the durability of conventional UV light sources, making it a reliable choice for consistent long-term usage. The LED is housed in a standard Transistor Outline (TO-can) package, which is both compact and designed to maintain a hermetically sealed environment. This construction includes electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, ensuring the unit’s longevity and functionality in diverse operational conditions.
Performance Benefits
With the SF2 LED, users will experience a substantial enhancement in far UVC technology. This new product achieves a radiant intensity of 2 mw/Sr—double that of its predecessor. Alongside this increase in power, the improved temperature stability ensures that changes in environmental conditions exert minimal influence on output power and wavelength fluctuations. This stability is crucial for maintaining the integrity of detection readings, thereby underscoring the SF2’s sophisticated design and engineering.
Upcoming Industry Events
Silanna UV will be actively participating in several key industry events throughout September 2025 to showcase the capabilities of the SF2 230nm LED. These events include:
- - 2025 IUVA World Congress in Lisbon, Portugal from September 7-10
- - CIOE 2025 in Shenzhen, China from September 10-12
