CAMAG UV Lamp: The lamp housing is made of anodized aluminum and of shock-resistant plastic. The lamp is operated on 12 V AC or DC power which is internally converted to 25-30 KHz high frequency. This ensures instantaneous ignition of the selected tube and the absence of any "flickering". In order to reduce the user?s risk to exposure to UV radiation, the lamps are equipped with a timer that automatically turns off after 10 minutes. The stand holds the lamp in a position optimized for viewing a 20x20 cm area (Stand available as an accessory). It shields off extraneous light on three sides. The lamp can be lifted off the stand and directed against a larger object.

- Shock resistant housing 442x76x43 mm
- Powered with 12 V AC from the mains adapter supplied or via an optional connecting cable from 12 V DC
- Instantaneous ignition without flickering and optimum light efficiency due to operation on 25-30 KHz
- Automatic switch off by timer after 10 min to reduce risk of exposure to UV radiation
Two types of ultraviolet light are required for inspecting thin-layer chromatograms:
Long-wave UV light 366 nm: Under long-wave UV light fluorescent substances appear as bright, often differently colored zones, on a dark background. The sensitivity increases with the intensity of the UV light and also with the efficiency visible light is eliminated.
Short-wave UV light 254 nm: Under 254 nm UV light substances absorbing light of that wavelength appear as dark zones on a bright background, when the TLC layer contains a fluorescent indicator excited by UV 254 nm.
