The EV6000 UV LED is the latest offering from Magnaflux. This nondestructive testing lamp’s wide beam allows for shorter inspections and faster results than the previous generation. The lamp’s 9” (23 cm) beam is 33 percent wider than a generic UV light.
The lamp works by generating UV-A radiation using special high-performance LEDs and focused through custom-designed optics.
Each unit is shipped with a manufacturer’s certificate of conformance, confirming that the lamp meets or exceeds all current specifications for use with fluorescent liquid penetrant and magnetic particle testing.
The EV6000 is designed to stand up to the kinds of environments that NDT professionals deal with. With reinforced construction and a sealed enclosure using chemical-resistant materials, there are no fan-cooling systems to clog or fail. In addition, Magnaflux’s custom-designed optics do not solarize.
The unit weighs in a full 30 percent less than mercury-vapor UV lamps, reducing stress and fatigue in the inspection booth. Cool-running LEDs and passive heat dissipation prevent any risk of operator burns.
With its controlled emission and included UV filter, the EV6000 meets all Aerospace Prime and OEM specifications for emission spectrum and beam profile.
