Jelight 6 W 254 nm Shortwave UV-C Replacement Tube

is a 6 W replacement ultraviolet tube that emits shortwave UV radiation at 254 nm. Designed for compatible Jelight Handheld, EL Series, Portable, and other 6 W UV lamps, it restores UV-C output for laboratory inspection, fluorescence examination, and equipment maintenance.

Applications

Shortwave Fluorescence Inspection

Restores 254 nm UV excitation in compatible lamps used to examine fluorescent minerals, specimens, and other UV-responsive materials. The replacement tube supports continued shortwave fluorescence inspection when the original tube loses output or requires replacement.

Laboratory Sample Examination

Provides replacement UV-C illumination for compatible laboratory lamps used in sample examination and analytical inspection. Suitable for equipment requiring a 6 W, 254 nm shortwave UV light source.

UV Equipment Maintenance

Replaces worn or damaged 254 nm tubes in compatible Jelight Handheld, EL Series, Portable, and other 6 W UV equipment. Proper tube replacement helps maintain the intended performance of the existing lamp assembly.

Features

• Produces shortwave ultraviolet radiation at a primary wavelength of 254 nm.
• Designed as a 6 W replacement tube for compatible Jelight UV equipment.
• Features a linear T5 configuration with a G5 miniature bi-pin base.
• Supports selected Handheld, EL Series, Portable, Rechargeable, and laboratory UV lamp configurations.
• Supplied as an individual replacement tube rather than a complete UV lamp assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Jelight Handheld UV Lamps use replacement tube 34-0013-01?

The UVG-54 uses the 34-0013-01 as its 254 nm light source, while the UVGL-58 uses one 34-0013-01 alongside a separate 365 nm tube. Verify the complete lamp model before ordering.

How many 34-0013-01 tubes are required for EL Series UV lamps?

The UVS-16 and UVLS-26 each require one 34-0013-01 tube, while the UVS-26 requires two. Other tube positions in multi-source models use the appropriate 365 nm or white-light replacement tubes.

Can this tube replace the split-wavelength tube in a UVGL-55 lamp?

No, the UVGL-55 requires replacement tube 34-0015-01, which combines 254 nm and 365 nm operation in a single tube. The 34-0013-01 produces only 254 nm UV-C radiation and is not a direct replacement.

What precautions should I take when replacing a 254 nm UV tube?

Disconnect the equipment from power and allow the tube to cool before replacement. Follow the equipment manual, handle the glass carefully, and ensure appropriate UV-protective eyewear, skin protection, and shielding are in place before operation. Never look directly at an exposed UV-C source.

How should used or broken UV fluorescent tubes be disposed of?

Handle used tubes as potentially mercury-containing fluorescent lamps and follow applicable recycling or hazardous-waste requirements. If a tube breaks, follow appropriate mercury-lamp cleanup procedures rather than treating the fragments as ordinary glass waste.

Warranty

This product is covered by a 12-month warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Inspect the product before use and contact ScienceLighting support if any defects or issues are identified.
