OSRAM ULTRA VITALUX 300 W 230 V E27 - Self-powered UV lamp (UVA/UVB) for solar simulation and technical applications

The OSRAM ULTRA VITALUX 300 W 230 V E27 is a high-performance UV lamp designed for technical applications requiring a spectrum similar to sunlight. It operates directly on 230 V without a ballast, emits 13.6 W of UVA and 3.0 W of UVB , and features an E27 base for easy installation. Its design, with an internal reflector and large-format bulb ( Ø 127 mm , 185 mm long), provides uniform light distribution, while the universal burn-in position facilitates its integration into test benches, aging chambers, and technical lighting fixtures. With a nominal lifespan of 1,000 hours and a weight of approximately 108.3 g , it is a robust and efficient solution for sunlight simulation , adhesive curing , material aging , exposure of photoresists , terrariums , and equine solariums .
