We sell industry standard lamps that fit most UV Sterilizers as long as one replaces a T5 with another T5 and the same goes for wattage and pin type (such as 4 pin). It is important that the length be the same or slightly less for the bulb to work, however an exact match is not critical as long as you do not replace the old lamp with one that is longer or of different wattage (this applies to the T5/ 4 pin lamps, not the 2 pin style). It also should be noted that many of the T5 4 pin style lamps have blue plastic ends while ours are white, this makes absolutely no difference in the UV lamp.

Be assured that when you buy from us, you are buying from someone with over 30 years of UV Sterilization expertise, not a second party seller with questionable product knowledge or customer service!

*Premium 8000-10,000 hour non-ozone producing Quartz Standard Straight Tube Germicidal UV-C Bulbs, all in industry standard lengths, pin arrangements, and diameters (T5=5/8”, T8=1”, T10=1.25”)
(Please see this article as to why we and most other reputable UV-C bulb/lamp sellers no longer sell Ozone producing UV lamps: UV-C Purification, Ozone)

*Keep in mind that 98% of t5 through T5 UV-C Bulbs are standardized (a few companies have proprietary bulbs for their UVs), so these bulbs will fit most units that call for the correct wattage (within 3 watts) and the correct pin arrangement (4 pin/ 2 pin) and diameters. We sell standard UV-C replacement lamps to fit most of the units available, and if your unit requires for example a 25 watt PUVLF432 17” lamp a 17.16” G22T5L/4P , four pin 22 -25 Watt UV bulb will work.

*Please check your lamp end to verify the 2 basic types; 2 pin or 4 pin, as well as the diameter whether it is 5/8 inch (T-5), 1 inch (T-8). Or 1.25 inches (T-10).
