Our engineers designed CRYSTAL CLEAR™ Quartz Sleeves to provide germicidal ultraviolet lamps an optimum environment for performance. They are a protective housing for UV germicidal lamps in air, surface, and water disinfection systems.
Why quartz and not an ordinary glass sleeves?
Ordinary glass is not transparent to germicidal ultraviolet radiation wavelengths—quartz is. In order to provide disinfection, CRYSTAL CLEAR™ Quartz Sleeves allow precisely the right amount of radiation to pass through into the air or water.
Why should I use a CRYSTAL CLEAR™ Quartz Sleeves for my UV lamp?
CRYSTAL CLEAR™ Quartz Sleeves are specially designed ultraviolet lamp housings that ensure lamp longevity. They protect UV lamps from dust, dirt and temperature variations.
Stops Dust and Dirt
Dirt on the ultraviolet lamp blocks powerful germicidal rays from reaching the air or water to be sanitized. CRYSTAL CLEAR™ Quartz Sleeves stop the debris from landing directly on the lamp. They provide a protective surface that’s both easy and safe to keep clean. Clean lamps provide the optimum UV wavelength for disinfecting water, air, and surfaces.
Regulate Temperature Variation Around Lamps
Ultraviolet radiation yield will decrease when temperatures vary. In water disinfection systems, cold water passes over the lamps. In air duct systems, UV lamps face low temperatures from air velocity. The CRYSTAL CLEAR™ Quartz Sleeve creates a protective temperature barrier around the ultraviolet lamp. This allows high germicidal UV output over a range of temperatures.
Maintenance
Quartz sleeves should be inspected one month after initial use. Depending on the condition of the sleeve, you can schedule a more or less frequent routine for future cleaning. Since you may handle the quartz sleeve often, we recommend that you prepare for an occasional accident, and keep a replacement (or a few, depending on your disinfection model) on hand in your maintenance kit.
Every CRYSTAL CLEAR™ Quartz Sleeve undergoes quality control reviewing by our trained staff. They are available in a wide range of diameters, wall thicknesses, open or closed ends (test tube end), and in virtually any length. Firepolishing and custom fabrication are also available upon request.
Our CRYSTAL CLEAR™ Quartz Sleeves can be used as equivalent replacement sleeves for over 200 equipment brands and 5,000 models of ultraviolet equipment besides Atlantic Ultraviolet’s air and water purifiers.
