UV light inspection for admission control
Selection of UV light equipment should be optimised for a particular application and depends on the requirements for UV light irradiation area, UV light intensity, process integration and ambient light levels.
UV products
Invisible/UV Revealing Stamping Ink
- Available in 50 ml bottles
- Invisible under normal lighting, glows vibrantly blue under UV-A blacklight
- Ideal for validating and controlling event admissions
UV-A blacklight torches (high intensity discharge and LEDs)
UV-A 3W High Output Blacklight LED Torch
- Re-chargeable battery operation
- UV wavelength peak output 365 nm
- High intensity UV LED providing easy revelation of UV security markings in normal lighting conditions. However compared to the 35W Blacklight Torch it produces a much narrower beam with shorter throw.
UV-A 1W Blacklight LED Torch
- Battery operation
- UV wavelength peak output 370 nm
- In comparison to the UV High Output LED it produces a lower intensity with shorter throw. Therefore the UV security markings will not be so bright and dimmed lighting may be required.
UV-A Blacklight LED Keyfob
- Battery operation
- UV wavelength range 370 nm
- Low powered unit for very small area inspection at short distances. Commonly used for revelation of UV security markings. Dimmed lighting may be required.
UV-A fluorescent tubes and compact fluorescent lamp units
UV-A 18W Blacklight
- Mains operation - Includes 2 x 9 W (12") blacklight blue UV tubes
- Wavelength range 350 nm - 400 nm (peak output 370 nm)
- IP65 waterproof fixture. Suitable for use outdoors or in wet environments.
- Compared with UV high intensity discharge lamps, this unit produces lower intensity over smaller areas. Dimmed lighting may be required. Wall, ceiling or stand mount.
UV-A 36W Blacklight
- Mains operation - Includes 2 x 18 W (24") blacklight blue UV tubes
- Wavelength range 350 nm - 400 nm (peak output 370 nm)
- IP65 waterproof fixture. Suitable for use outdoors or in wet environments.
- Compared with UV high intensity discharge lamps, this unit produces lower intensity over smaller areas. Dimmed lighting may be required. Wall, ceiling or stand mount.

- Wavelength range 350 nm - 400 nm (peak output 370 nm)
- IP65 waterproof fixture. Suitable for use outdoors or in wet environments.
- Compared with UV high intensity discharge lamps, this unit produces lower intensity over smaller areas. Dimmed lighting may be required. Wall, ceiling or stand mount.
UV-A 72W Blacklight
- Mains operation - Includes 2 x 36 W (48") blacklight blue UV tubes
- Wavelength range 350 nm - 400 nm (peak output 370 nm)
- IP65 waterproof fixture. Suitable for use outdoors or in wet environments.
- Compared with UV high intensity discharge lamps, this unit produces lower intensity over smaller areas. Dimmed lighting may be required. Wall, ceiling or stand mount.
UV-A Blacklight 4W Torch
- Battery operation
- Wavelength range 350 nm - 400 nm (peak output 370 nm)
- Low powered unit for very small area inspection at short distances. Dimmed lighting may be required.
UV-A 26W Blacklight
- Mains operation
- Wavelength range 315 nm - 400 nm (peak output 365 nm)
- Low intensity unit for small area inspection at short distances. Commonly used for counterfeit note and security marking detection. Dimmed lighting may be required.
