Hy,
I intend to build a UV box and I need some advises
For now I only have a UV tube Philips TL-D 18W/08 T8 590mm UV-A
I think is good for PCB together with another 3 pieces same model as above
in the following configuration
A wooden box, 2 tubes at bottom wired with an electromagnetic 36W ballast and a 2 starters specially designed for 2 tubes (S2 4-22W) and 2 lamps above with another ballast and starters.
What do u think of this? It is OK
A wiring diagram would be **broken link removed**
My question is what about Actinic series from Philips, is it good? I read it also emits light in UV-A range but in smaller quantity than blacklight models from Philips, and they have a white diffuse glass.
Any comment and methods about how to build such a unit is welcomed.
Thank you
