Compact UVC lamp for small-system builds
The Philips TUV PL-L 18W is a single-tube germicidal bulb with a 4-pin 2G11 base. It is intended for designers and installers who need a UV-C source that fits into tight equipment layouts. The single-ended base makes lamp replacement straightforward during maintenance windows.
Fits 2G11 sockets and frees layout space
The lamp slots directly into a 2G11 holder, requiring no extra adapters or wiring harnesses. Its compact dimensions allow engineers to shrink the overall reactor or purifier footprint, leaving more room for airflow channels, control electronics or additional filtration stages.
Steady UV-C output over 9000 hours
The lamp delivers almost constant UV-C irradiance across its rated 9000-hour lifetime, so disinfection performance does not fade significantly as the tube ages. This stability suits continuous-duty air or water treatment systems where a drop-off in output would compromise the required dose.
