Deuterium Lamp Shimadzu SPD-10A Replacement lamp

This premium deuterium lamp is a direct replacement light source for Shimadzu SPD-10A series UV detectors, delivering OEM-equivalent fit, function, and analytical performance for HPLC and UV-Vis spectroscopy applications.

Reliable data requires a stable light source. Our deuterium lamp is manufactured with advanced engineering to provide:

• Extended Lifespan: Rated for an average operational life of 2,000 hours, significantly reducing maintenance frequency and operational downtime.
• Minimal Drift & Fluctuation: Features an output drift of just ±0.5%/h and a fluctuation of 0.1% p-p. This exceptional stability guarantees highly reproducible analytical results and a superior signal-to-noise ratio.

Every lamp undergoes strict quality control testing at multiple processing steps. We guarantee that each unit meets rigorous industry standards for electrical specifications, including a rated current of 300 mA (dc) and a discharge maintaining voltage of 70–95 V (dc). Choose our deuterium lamp for a dependable, high-performance light source that keeps your critical analytical workflows running smoothly.

This premium deuterium lamp is specifically designed as a high-performance light source for High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy instruments. It is widely used in pharmaceutical quality control, environmental testing, food safety analysis, chemical research, and clinical laboratories.

To maximize the lifespan and performance of your deuterium lamp, please follow these guidelines:

• Energy Check: Set the wavelength to 200 nm and check the reference cell energy. If the energy drops below 800 (under normal instrument conditions), it is time to replace the lamp.
• Proper Handling: Always wear clean, lint-free gloves when installing. Hold the lamp by the metal electrode ends only; never touch the glass window with bare hands to avoid oil contamination.
• Preheat & Avoid Frequent Switching: Allow the new lamp to preheat and stabilize for 30–60 minutes before running samples. Avoid turning the UV lamp on and off frequently; if the interval is less than 3 hours, keep the lamp powered on to protect its lifespan.
• Safe Disposal: Deuterium lamps contain specialized materials. Please dispose of them as industrial waste according to local environmental regulations, rather than general household waste.
