UV-C LEDs disinfect and purify

Luminus Devices has expanded its ultraviolet LED portfolio with two short-wave UV-C emitters intended for medical and health products. Each device provides an emission wavelength of 280 nm for healthcare product disinfection, water and air purification, and surface disinfection of consumer appliances. The standard-footprint XST-3535-UV surface-mount emitter has a maximum drive current of 350 mA with optical power output of 30 mW to 60 mW. It provides a narrow viewing angle of 60° from its 3.5×3.5 mm package.
