Description
The BlueWave 200 UV curing spot lamp offers the highest intensity and simplest operation in the industry. A new patent pending intensity adjustment feature allows operators to manually adjust intensity during process validation and production. Users can now maintain a constant intensity by manually increasing intensity to compensate for bulb degradation.

The BlueWave 200 primarily emits UVA and blue visible light (300-450 nm) and is designed for UV curing of adhesives, coatings and encapsulants. It contains an integral shutter which can be actuated by a foot pedal or PLC making it ideal for both manual and automated processes. A solid-state power supply provides consistent performance at any voltage (90-263 V, 47-63 Hz). DYMAX also offers a wide range array of long lasting lightguides including liquid/fiber, single/multi-pole lightguides in various lengths. The BlueWave 200 is the most versatile, user-friendly and reliable UV spot curing lamp available.

Control
Validation of a UV curing process identifies a minimum acceptable intensity range which ensures complete cure in an acceptable cycle time. Users can choose to operate at full intensity (intensity adjusted to 100%) or maintain a constant intensity (at some lower level) through periodic manual adjustments. The average BlueWave 200 bulb will typically degrade <1% per eight hours of normal use. The good manufacturing practice of routine intensity measurement with a calibrated radiometer will determine when and if any adjustments are required.
