The Silanna UVC LEDs are packaged in Marktech’s proprietary ATLAS hermetic SMD package. The award-winning ATLAS package provides exceptional environmental protection for UVC chips in a highly compact footprint. The new Silanna UVC LEDs on starboards are available in flat lens and dome lens versions. The flat lens provides a wider viewing angle of 120 degrees, and the dome lens reduces the viewing angle to 60 degrees.
Critical Advantages of Marktech’s UVC LEDs on Starboards
