What is the typical life span of the lamp, and when does a user know when the lamp should be replaced; is there any visual indication?
The amount of UV energy produced by the lamps decreases over time. After one year of constant on time the lamp will reach its “end of life” performance and the lamps should be replaced. There is a light pipe that allows the user to safely view the lamp to determine that lamp is lit. Even though the lamps could continue to burn for years, we recommend that the lamps be changed every 12 months because they do lose intensity, which impacts the kill rate. Even if the lamp is lit, it may e emitting sufficient amounts of UV energy.
