UV intensity tester test fly killer intensity
Fly killers can use ultraviolet rays to attract light-tending insects and induce insects to approach the UV tube. When insects come into contact with the fly paper or high-voltage electric fence placed in the fly killer, they will be stuck or electrocuted to kill them. The effect of insects. The effect of the fly-killing lamp is closely related to the ultraviolet lamp tube. As an indispensable instrument for monitoring the intensity of the ultraviolet lamp tube, the UV intensity tester can help the user find the failed lamp in advance and replace it.
1. The working principle of the three fly kill lamps
At present, there are three common fly-killing lamps, photocatalyst fly-killing lamps, stick-trap fly-killing lamps and electric shock-type fly-killing lamps. The first two are relatively safe, will not cause secondary pollution, and are helpful for users to observe and record the number and types of insects and analyze trends.
The photocatalyst fly-killing lamp attracts mosquitoes through ultraviolet light and carbon dioxide and water released by the photocatalytic reaction. When the mosquitoes are sucked into the capture window, they will be sucked to the bottom by the vortex formed by the fan, and finally dried to death.
The stick-trap fly-killing lamp attracts mosquitoes through the ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet lamp tube, and then sticks the mosquitoes through the sticky mosquito paper in the fly-killing lamp to finally achieve the purpose of killing flies.
The last type of electric shock-type fly-killing lamp also uses ultraviolet rays to induce mosquitoes to approach the fly-killing lamp, and then electrocute the mosquitoes through the high-voltage electric fence near the fly-killing lamp. This method will disperse the corpses when the mosquitoes are electrically shocked, which is likely to cause secondary pollution, so it is no longer advocated.
2. The life span of the UV tube affects the effect of the fly killer
The fly-killing effect of the fly-killing lamp mainly depends on the built-in ultraviolet lamp. The ultraviolet lamp of the fly-killing lamp that has been used for more than one year is also recommended to use professional equipment to detect whether the lamp emits sufficient ultraviolet rays, because of the coating on the surface of the lamp. Once consumed, it cannot emit ultraviolet rays that can attract light-tending insects. Even if it is on, it cannot achieve the effect of attracting insects.
Before the large number of insects multiply, it is best to carry out certain maintenance of the protection facilities to ensure that they can deal with the upcoming pests. Here we recommend a must-have product for the inspection of fly-killing lamps and UV tubes-UV measuring instrument.
