The UV bulb is low wattage, energy saving and stays cool at all times, unlike halogens that produce a lot of heat causing the emulsion to lock in on the mesh making reclaiming and clearing the image very difficult. It will not be affected by air moisture in damp conditions, unlike the halogen lamp. It does not have to be replaced as often as the halogen bulb as they burn their UV emittance very quickly. The length of UV is 365 nanos which is the correct length for exposing All American Emulsion. When exposing at the correct time/distance this ensures that under exposure will not occur with repeat use. Under exposure makes screens very difficult to reclaim. Bulb has a 10,000 hour warranty.

You will achieve precise, sharp and correctly exposed images on your screen using this unit. This bulb works with water resistant, plastisol and solvent resistant emulsion. It will expose a halftone image up to 65dpi, depending on the emulsion that is used, All American Emulsion and clear daylight film which holds an opaque sharp halftone dot using any Epson Stylus printer with original black ink which is waterproof and UV resistant is advised.
