Actinic LEDtube EM/Mains T8 Secura
Maintaining cleanliness and protecting food are essential in professional settings such as restaurants, catering services, and the food and beverage industry. Insects, particularly flies, pose a significant threat to food safety. One of the most effective methods to reduce insect presence is by attracting and eliminating them using an Electronic Fly Killer (EFK).
Philips introduces the latest addition to the renowned Actinic BL family: the Philips Actinic UV-A LEDtube EM/Mains T8 Secura.
This innovative high-performance insect trap LED lamp has been designed to effectively control houseflies and other pests in food production facilities, restaurants, shopping centres, offices, and food preparation areas.
It combines the best of both worlds: UV-A technology to attract and trap insects, and LED technology to save on energy costs, reduce carbon emissions, and ensure a 100% mercury-free solution.
This new product offers an equal catch rate to the conventional Philips Actinic UV-A lamps.
Versatile: retrofit (EM systems) & 1st install in one product
Effective catch-rate: thanks to optimized spectral distribution
Energy-Savings: thanks to LED technology & efficient electrical design
Safe: Thanks to Secura shatterproof sleeve
Environmentally friendly: lead & mercury free, low energy consumption, retrofit & long lifetime
Long lifetime: 3-year lifespan
The Philips Actinic UV-A LEDtube can be used either as a retrofit solution for EM systems (Plug & Play) when combining with Philips MASTER LEDtube EM/Mains Starter (purchased separately) or as a first-install product by connecting it directly to mains voltage.
Thanks to its optimized spectral distribution and unique lamp characteristics, the catch rate of our Philips Actinic UV-A LEDtube is exceptional. The efficacy has been rigorously evaluated through catch rate tests conducted in a specialized external laboratory under controlled conditions. The results demonstrate that the Philips UV-A LEDtube has a catch rate comparable to our conventional Philips Actinic lamp.
Our Actinic UV-A LEDtube offers exceptional energy efficiency with just 5W of power consumption, helping to lower energy costs. Additional savings can be achieved by utilizing the LED starter or connecting directly to the mains, as this bypasses the need for the EM driver.
For enhanced protection and safety, all Actinic UV-A LEDtube EM/Mains T8 lamps are manufactured with our shatterproof Secura coating. This shatterproof sleeve ensures that all glass and components remain intact in the event of accidental lamp breakage, thereby eliminating the risk of glass splinters contaminating food/products. The blue tape assures Philips Secura authenticity.
This product represents our most sustainable offering yet, featuring a lead- and mercury-free composition, energy-efficient performance, and a 3-year lifespan.
Following a stringent validation process, we are pleased to guarantee a 3-year lifespan for the Philips Actinic LEDtube. By choosing this product, you can enjoy peace of mind and reliable performance.
