Philips 9W G23 UVC germicidal lamp

The Philips 325126 is a compact UVC germicidal bulb with a single tube and a 2-pin G23 base. It delivers 9 watts of UV-C output for disinfection applications in water, air or surface treatment systems. The single-ended base simplifies lamp replacement in compatible fixtures.

Practical limits of the G23 interface

The 2-pin G23 base restricts use to ballasts and fixtures designed for this specific socket. UV-C radiation requires shielding because direct exposure damages eyes and skin. The lamp produces almost constant UV output over its rated 9000 hours, after which germicidal effectiveness declines.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your equipment accepts a G23 base and is rated for a 9 watt UV-C lamp. Confirm the ballast matches the lamp wattage and that the fixture provides adequate UV containment. Ensure the physical length of the single tube fits the available space in your system.
