Mercury UV lamp for wood finishes

Introduction

We build mercury UV lamps with one focus in mind: wood finishing lines. This isn’t some off-the-shelf bulb. It’s a purpose-built tool, engineered to rapidly cure UV-curable topcoats and sealers on hardwoods and engineered wood. The aim is straightforward: give you intense, reliable output that keeps your line moving—without scorching the wood.

Power, Voltage, and Fit

Here’s the heart of it. These lamps run on a high-intensity discharge design. They need serious voltage—often 400V—to strike and hold the arc, which gives you the shortwave UV that cures the surface fast. The wattage is matched to your line speed and how thick the coating is. A 2500W rating is common for production lines that need to cure a wide zone quickly. As for size, we make the length and diameter to fit standard curing chambers. The arc tube is sized to work with the reflector, so the UV energy is focused right where it needs to be: on the wood. If you’re retrofitting an existing oven, we can spec the tube as a direct replacement so your footprint stays the same.
