ADL Supply Expert Application & Replacement Guide
Blacklight Blue (BLB) lamps are used where a long-wave UV light is needed to make fluorescent materials glow, for example in displays, inspection work and entertainment lighting. The lamp has a rated average life of 15,000 hours.
BLB lamps have a dark blue filter glass that blocks most visible light.
This lamp is about 1200 mm (47.2 in) long and 28 mm in diameter, so it fits 4-foot T8 fixtures that have a compatible ballast.
