5 Philips UV Narrowband (/01) Phototherapy lamps The UV Narrowband (/01) low-pressure fluorescent Phototherapy lamps are proven to be the most effective lamps for the treatment of skin diseases compared with other lamps in their class. Not only did we introduce the very first UV lamps, we ve also continued to develop and improve them for the last 20 years. Our application laboratory carries out research in close cooperation with universities all over the world. More than 400 independent clinical studies * have proven that Philips UV Narrowband Phototherapy lamps are the most effective lamps currently available for the treatment of Psoriasis, Vitiligo and other skin diseases. ased on this unmatched combination of experience and knowledge, Philips Lighting can offer the best advice to equipment manufacturers. an be used for the treatment of: Psoriasis Parapsoriasis Vitiligo topic ermatitis Mycosis fungoides Other skin diseases * reference available at Spectrum TL/01 ouptut (a.u.) wavelength (nm) Philips TL with R cap (R17d) Philips TL with bi-pin cap (G13) Philips PL-S 9W (2G11) Features Emission peak at 311nm Narrowband Worldwide tested in more than 400 clinical tests enefits Minimum side effects like redness, itching and burns Shorter period of exposure and less erythemal radiation than conventional UV lamps Proven to be the most effective lamps in their class Philips UV Narrowband (/01) Phototherapy lamps type Product Output UV (W) Voltage urrent ap/ base Packaging onfiguration MOQ Order (Europe) Order (US) Philips UV Narrowband PL-S 9W/ G23 6 x10 ox Philips UV Narrowband PL-L 36W/ G Philips UV Narrowband TL 20W/ G Philips UV Narrowband TL 40W/ G Philips UV Narrowband TL 100W/ R17d Philips UV Narrowband TL F72 100W/ R17d Philips UV Narrowband TL F79 120W/ G N 5

7 Philips UV (/09) and UV-1 (/10) Phototherapy lamps Philips UV (/09) lamps emit radiation over the whole UV part of the spectrum ( nm). Philips UV-1 (/10) lamps emit radiation in a limited part of the UV range. In PUV-therapy these lamps are used in combination with Photosensitizers (for example Psoralenes) for the treatment of Psoriasis. Treatment with PUV remains the standard for patients with high PSI scores who do not respond or whose psoriasis cannot be controlled adequately by UV.

10 Safety measures s with natural sunlight, UV-therapy increases the risk of skin cancer, can cause erythema (sunburn), conjunctivitis (snow blindness) and cataract of the eye. Philips UV therapy lamps (/01 and /12) are only supplied to qualified customers. The lamps should only be used for medical purposes under doctor supervision. hronic blue light exposure can damage the retina. Patients should always wear appropriate eye-wear. Therapy equipment must be screened off to ensure safe operation by service personnel. * Equipment must be provided with a timer in order to control the dose. * For safe levels, see standard IE Photobiological Safety of s and s Systems Operating conditions In order to obtain the highest possible output, the equipment should be designed to keep the lamp at the optimal temperature. % Relative radiant output 60 Output (a.u.) Tube-wall temperature urning-in time We advise a burning-in time for new UV Narrowband (/01) lamps of at least one hour to avoid the initial high output value. 10
