Luminus Releases XFM-5050 UVC LEDs and Opens New Possibilities for Disinfection and Sterilization — LED professional

With the industry rapidly transitioning from mercury lamps to LEDs and new applications emerging that require higher power from smaller LEDs, XFM-5050 can deliver more than 400 mW at maximum drive current from a 5×5 mm package. At this new level of power, price, and reliability, even the most challenging applications such as municipal/industrial water purification are within reach.

“Effective UVC applications require the right combination of wavelength, intensity, and reliability and the market demands all three at a cost that enables LED adoption,” said Murali Kumar, Director of Specialty Marketing. “Earlier this year we dropped the cost per milliwatt to $0.10 with the XBT-3535. Lowering the cost an additional 20% and increasing output comes just in time to support the rising demand for UVC LED solutions.”

The XFM-5050 series is sampling now, with production volumes starting early in 2021.
