# ON-DEMAND PRESENTATION: GLASS OPTICS TO IMPROVE LIGHT OUTPUT FOR UV-C LED APPLICATIONS

###### **Overcome the challenges of UV-C LED application use with a molded, UV glass optic**

At the 2021 IUVA World Congress, we presented two, comparative case studies demonstrating how molded, UV glass optics address challenges facing UV-C LED application adoption, including cost, efficiency, and light distribution.

The addition of a molded, UV glass optics to your design enhances and improves the light distributions of UV-C LEDs, by covering more lateral area in the air (requiring fewer LEDs to cover a specified area) and increasing surface irradiance at a distance to achieve application irradiance and dosage targets (with fewer LEDs).

**WATCH THIS PRESENTATION TO LEARN HOW MOLDED, UV OPTICS CAN:**

- Increase irradiance/dose at longer working distances
- Reduce UV disinfection cycle times
- Improve disinfection area coverage
- Decrease LED count for area coverage and UV dose requirements

### Learn how to increase the efficiency of your UV-C LED application
