The UVP Blak-Ray B-100 Series lamps are available in a variety of styles: All "P" series lamps come with the special heat-resistant plastic Cool-TouchTM housing which allows users to handle the lamp head regardless of how long the lamp has been operating. These rugged lamps can be placed face down on a working surface without damage to the filter. The non "P" models are built with an aluminum lamp head.

A 100 watt spot bulb is standard with all models (except the B-100SP); the bulb is rated at 5000 hours

The lamp head connects to the transformer base for hands free use (all models except B-100SP) allowing the lamp head to rotate a full 360°; remove the lamp from the base for additional mobility.

B-100A and A-100AR–The longwave B-100A is manufactured with a scratch-resistant aluminum housing which connects to ballast base with an 8 foot cord; 8 foot secondary cord is included. The 100 watt longwave UV bulb is excellent for inspection applications. For increased mobility, select the B-100AR which includes 20 ft (6.1m) primary and secondary cords. Uses for these lamps include non-destructive testing and fluorescence inspection.

The B-100Y models features a yellow filter which blocks wavelengths shorter than 500nm and produces three strong mercury lines at 543, 574 and 576nm. The high contrast light is produced for fine surface particle detection. Particles down to 10 microns are routinely visible with this lamp. B-100Y is built with the aluminum housing; B-100YP with a plastic housing. These lamps are excellent for semiconductor wafer inspection as most photoresist absorption occurs below 450nm.

Self-ballasted bulb included with the B-100SP has an average life of 450 to 2000 hours depending on use patterns.
