Description

Now you can experiment on a rainy day! At 18" long overall, this long wave UV light source is great for larger presentations. UV-610 uses the latest in LED technology to produce a bright, even UV light field. This LED lamp will give you over 30,000 hours of use. Operates on 120v and includes an on/off switch. Now available with a stand to protect eyes. The stand shades the light and reduces exposure to UV. Your UV Beads or other UV light-sensitive sample can simply be placed under the stand for direct exposure.

NGSS

This product will support your students' understanding of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)*, as shown in the table below.

Elementary Middle School High School

1-PS4-2

Students can conduct investigations showing evidence of illumination from an external source such as the Sun.

DCI/1-PS4.B Electromagnetic Radiation

Objects can be seen only when light is available to illuminate them.

MS-PS4-1

Students can conduct investigations showing evidence that the amplitude of a wave is related to the energy in a wave.

MS-PS4-2

Students can use this tool to develop and use a model to describe how waves are reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through various materials.

HS-PS4-5

Students can use this light to conduct investigations about technological devices use the principles of wave behavior and wave interactions with matter to transmit and capture energy.

HS-PS4-3

Students can use the UV light to evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning behind the idea that electromagnetic radiation can be described by a wave model.

HS-PS4-4

Students can explore the idea that different frequencies of light have different energies, and the damage to living tissue from electromagnetic radiation depends on the energy of the radiation.

Suggested Science Idea(s)

MS-PS4-1
HS-PS4-5

Students can use this UV light in classroom experiments along with UV Beads or other Ultraviolet products.
