When you buy a UV flashlight, you should pay particular attention to the quality: You probably use the UV flashlight every day to detect cracks, leaks, etc., which are made safe by identifying them under UV light. If the flashlight does not meet the highest requirements here, you or your company will probably have significant additional costs elsewhere due to errors not being found.

There are different wavelengths. Humans can recognize wavelengths from 380 to 780nm as light. The cone of light with ultraviolet radiation can consist of three areas, in this area from 100 to 380nm, the electromagnetic radiation is invisible and is only visible indirectly through fluorescent dyes etc.:

UVA radiation in the wavelength range of 315-380nm: Long UV waves with lower energy

UVB radiation in the wavelength range of 280-315nm: short-wave and high-energy

UVC radiation in the wavelength range of 100-280nm: very short-wave and very high-energy

In the field of non-destructive material testing (NDT), UVA radiation is used in UV flashlights and UV-LED lighting systems. There are many possible applications for UVA flashlights and UVA lights in general:

• NDT: Fluorescent penetrant testing, magnetic particle testing,..
• Leak detection, leak detection and crack detection
• Checking the authenticity of banknotes
• Riboflavin test
• Visual inspection with tracers and markers
• Clean room inspection / wafer inspection
• UV curing / UV drying
• UVA test in the field of solar systems, solar cells, photovoltaics, sun simulation
• Gemology / gemstone research
• and much more.

Good UV safety glasses, for example safety glasses with EN 170 certification is mandatory when working with UV radiation, you should definitely observe these occupational safety regulations.

What types of UV lamps are there and what are the advantages of a UV flashlight?

As an NDT inspector, you also have to carry out non-destructive testing on industrial plants, chemical plants and other plants with hard-to-reach places. Piping that is hidden or located in small corners. With a large UV LED lamp or even mercury vapor lamp you have several problems or you may not be able to carry out the crack detection at all because:

• the UV-LED lamp is too big. A UVA flashlight like the TCI, on the other hand, is small, handy and you can be mobile anywhere.
• the UV lamp can only be used with a cable and power supply unit. The TCI UV flashlight is equipped with rechargeable batteries and can be used for several hours.
• the TCI UV-LED flashlight also fits well in a jacket pocket or on the belt. If you have to climb ladders to get to the testing station, you have your hands free and can then safely carry out the NDT test with the LED UV flashlight.

How many LEDs or what UV intensity should a UV flashlight for NDT have?

• Ultraviolet flashlights are available in different versions with one LED, but some are also equipped with up to 50 or more LEDs
• The UV intensity of an LED black light flashlight depends to a certain extent on the number of LEDs, but many other factors also play a role.
• for NDT (non-destructive material testing), the UV illumination range and the homogeneity of the illumination is a very important aspect. If, in addition to the UV intensity, the illumination area is large, there is a soft fall-off in radiation at the edge and the homogeneity of the ultraviolet flashlight is perfect, then you can work best and most safely and will be able to complete the best possible penetrant inspection or magnetic particle inspection efficiently and in accordance with all standards.
• for NDT it is important that the industrial UV flashlight is focused and illuminates homogeneously. The TC1 UV Flashlight is available in this configuration.
• for leak detection, leak detection (crack detection), in addition to the UV intensity, a large illumination area is very advantageous.

With the TC1 UV black light lamp, we offer all versions and versions that are optimal for the specific area of application. It is part of our professionalism and motivation as a UV flashlight manufacturer that we give you the best advice and that our development of the TCI is so flexible and standardized at the same time that we can customize the TC1 perfectly for you for all of the applications mentioned.
