Powerful UV curing lamp for cleanrooms

DELO curing lamps offer a modular design and can be modified to customer-specific demands. One example is the DELOLUX 203 UV area lamp, which it has produced for a leading supplier of equipment and process solutions to the semiconductor industry for employment in clean rooms. The lamp is based on the DELOLUX 20 but works with water cooling rather than air cooling.

In light curing, the company also provides variable cooling concepts tailored to customers' production conditions.

The company has developed the UV lamp based on a DELOLUX 20 lamp head. The area lamp is intended for use in a cleanroom where there can be no impact on the continuous laminar airflow in the room. For this reason, it removed the original fan and substituted it with a new external cooling profile based on water cooling.

The lamp has a wavelength of 365nm. It weighs 1.6kg without the cooling module and measures 112mm x 112mm x 121mm. It offers an intensity of more than 600mW/cm² and provides plug-and-play connectivity for simple integration into production lines. The intensity progress is constant over the complete irradiation time.

“Just under a third of our adhesives are the result of customer-specific developments,” says Robert Saller, member of the DELO management board. “Our lamps can be optimally lined up with each other thanks to their thin edges at the light exit area, enabling homogeneous irradiation over the entire area. With the flexible cooling module, we can now respond even better to our customers' needs.”
