Import Tips
• Verify UV wavelength certification (e.g
• 254nm UV-C) to confirm classification under ultraviolet lamps
• Include ozone production specs in documentation; high-ozone lamps may require EPA compliance
• Avoid misclassification as LED sources; ensure no LED components to prevent reclassification
