Philips TUV 16W 4P SE Germicidal Lamp

This Philips TUV 16W 4P SE germicidal lamp emits UV-C radiation for water and air disinfection systems. Rated at 16 watts with a 9000-hour lifetime, it is built for continuous operation in compatible fixtures. The 4-pin single-ended base ensures a secure electrical connection. Model 385419 identifies the exact replacement part.

Suited for UV-C disinfection units

This lamp suits installers maintaining UV-C water purifiers, air handlers or surface disinfection cabinets that accept a 16-watt 4-pin single-ended tube. It is not for buyers needing visible illumination, different wattages, alternative base types or lamps rated for longer service intervals. General lighting fixtures cannot use this UV-C source.

16-watt UV-C output

The 16-watt UV-C output determines the disinfection dose delivered to the water or air stream. Systems designed for this wattage rely on the specified intensity to meet treatment targets. Using a different wattage lamp will alter the dose and can compromise the disinfection performance.

Questions about this item

What type of ballast or fixture is required for the 4-pin SE base on this Philips TUV 16W germicidal lamp?

The lamp uses a 4-pin single-ended base designed for compatible electronic or magnetic ballasts rated for 16W UV-C operation; verify the ballast matches the wattage and lamp type before installation.

Can this 16W UV-C lamp run on the same ballast as older lower-wattage germicidal bulbs I already have?

No, ballasts are wattage-specific; a 16W lamp requires a ballast rated for 16W, so existing ballasts for different wattages will not operate this lamp correctly.

How can I confirm the lamp is producing UV-C output after installation?

The rated 9000-hour life indicates expected germicidal performance under proper ballast and operating conditions; a calibrated UV-C radiometer is needed to verify actual output.
