For more than a decade, Micro Square has been successfully developing and manufacturing UV LED curing and irradiation equipment. From the beginning, many of their products have fallen into the black light range, but it wasn’t until about 5 years ago that we began retailing machines specifically for black light inspection usage.
Common black light applications:
Fluorescent penetrant inspection (including non-destructive and magnetic particle, used in aerospace labs)
Testing for leakage in liquid systems, such as HVAC refrigeration systems
Forensic labs and police inspection
Medical testing
Inspecting goods and currency for counterfeiting
Advantages of Our UV LED Black Lights -
Better Strength: Our LEDs are substantially stronger than the majority we see on the market.
Better Efficiency: LEDs use substantially less energy than traditional UV lamps.
Better Cost: LEDs are usually cheaper than lamps, but our LEDs are also substantially cheaper than most competitors we see in the market. That’s because due to the expensive nature of UV Lamps and how young UV LED technology is, many UV LED suppliers have been able to spend years overcharging. We, on the other hand believe in honest pricing. And, don’t forget, UV LEDs have longer lives than UV lamps, lower electricity requirements, and ours are easily serviced.
Better Work Environment: Combining the slim and compact structure LEDs allow with our custom lens technologies, we can easily expand the operator's field of view and area of illumination. Plus, LEDs generate far less heat than UV lamps, meaning a more comfortable work environment.
Better Quality: Our LEDs offer a smooth and broad area of irradiation, meaning higher-quality irradiation.
Better Serviceability: We design our units to be easily serviced in-house, with simple UV LED arrays that can be interchanged without difficulty.
Conventional Lamp Black Light
Our LED Black Light
The large width of the machine narrows the field of view of workers. There is also considerably more heat output.
Since the machine is narrow, the operator's field of view is wide and it is easy to see. The irridation area is wide.
Additional Features and Suggestions
Some useful features that can be set for each irradiator are light controls, a disconnection detection alarm, a temperature abnormality alarm (and forced shutoff), cumulative operating time (LED replacement time) function, and more. These can be set in advance as needed - for example, they can be set to turn off automatically at a specific time.
If the inspection target is large, we recommend a dedicated power supply that can control multiple irradiators simultaneously. Our unique configuration enhances the safety, security, and quality of inspection.
