Philips 244855 6W UVC Germicidal Lamp

This Philips 244855 lamp emits short-wave UV-C radiation peaking at 253.7 nm for water and air disinfection. The 6W double-ended tube has a 16 mm diameter that allows compact system designs. A protective inside coating keeps UV output almost constant over the rated 9,000-hour lifetime. Special lamp glass filters out 185 nm ozone-forming radiation.

Check power supply and fixture compatibility

Verify that your ballast or driver supports a 6W UVC tube with the same electrical characteristics before installation. The lamp carries an EPA establishment number 95792-POL-1, so confirm local regulations allow its use in the intended application. A warning sign on the lamp indicates UVC emission; ensure the housing provides proper shielding. The slim 16 mm form factor requires matching lampholders and spacing.

Slim double-ended build with constant output

The 16 mm diameter double-ended construction enables flexible mounting in tight chambers. Protective coating maintains stable germicidal output throughout the 9,000-hour life, reducing replacement frequency. Ozone-free glass eliminates 185 nm radiation, simplifying ventilation requirements. Direct UVC exposure is hazardous, so the fixture must prevent accidental eye or skin contact during operation.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what else is needed to run the Philips 244855 TUV 6W UVC lamp?

The box contains 10 lamps. A compatible UV-C fixture with a 16 mm diameter socket and appropriate ballast must be purchased separately to operate the lamp safely.

Which version of the Philips TUV 6W UVC lamp should I choose for a compact disinfection system?

The 16 mm diameter TUV TL Mini design allows a small system footprint. High Output versions are also available if maximum UVC output per lamp length is required for the application.

What does the 253.7 nm peak wavelength mean for actual disinfection performance?

The 253.7 nm UVC peak matches the germicidal absorption maximum of DNA, providing effective water and air disinfection. The special glass filters out 185 nm ozone-forming radiation for safer operation.
