Designed to provide a reliable, energy-saving replacement for mercury lamps, the Vishay Semiconductors VLMU3510-365-130 delivers an exceptionally long lifetime in a compact 3.45 mm by 3.45 mm surface-mount package for medical, industrial, and printing applications. Silicone lens enables extremely long lifetimes up to 25,000 h, compared to the typical mercury lamp lifetime of 10,000 h Environmentally friendly UV LED — free of heavy metals Shock resistance and immunity to degradation from frequent on / off switching provide increased reliability Allows for the use of simple low-voltage circuitry and requires no warm-up period Mercury lamps require complex drive circuits and need two to 15 minutes to warm up Built on InGaN (indium gallium nitride) technology Product Group: Vishay Semiconductors, LEDs / May 2016 The Key Specifications: Part number Color Radiant power range @IF = 500 mA (mW) @IF = 700 mA Wavelength range (nm) Max. forward voltage (V) @ IF = 500 mA Typ. radiant intensity (mW/sr) @ IF = 700 mA Emission angle () VLMU3510-365-130 Ultraviolet 690 945 362.5 to 370 4.4 315 130 Availability: Samples and production quantities of the new UV LED are available now, with lead times of six to eight weeks.
