Magnaflux EV6500 High-Intensity Dual-Light LED UV Lamp (SKU: 626803)
The Magnaflux EV6500 is a professional-grade, hand-held LED UV lamp engineered for fluorescent non-destructive testing applications including fluorescent penetrant testing (PT) and fluorescent magnetic particle inspection (MT). Delivering 7,000 µW/cm² of high-intensity UV-A illumination across a 10-inch uniform beam — the widest coverage area in its class — the EV6500 maximizes inspection efficiency without sacrificing indication sensitivity.
What sets the EV6500 apart is its integrated white light LEDs, providing over 150 ft-candles of concentrated visible flood light in the same unit. This eliminates the need for a separate flashlight during flaw location, post-inspection documentation, and part handling — making the EV6500 the most versatile hand-held UV lamp in the Magnaflux lineup. Designed for both in-line and hand-held use, it decreases inspection cycle time while improving indication visibility across critical NDT applications.
Key Features
- Industry-Leading 10-Inch Beam Width: Uniform coverage with no hot-spots — the widest beam in its class for faster, more thorough inspections
- 7,000 µW/cm² UV-A Output: High-intensity UV-A illumination for superior fluorescent indication visibility and detection sensitivity
- Integrated White Light LEDs: Over 150 ft-candles of concentrated visible flood light built in — no separate flashlight needed for documentation or part handling
- Dual-Mode Operation: Switch between UV-A and white light modes for seamless transition between fluorescent inspection and visible flaw documentation
- Broad-Beam Profile: Designed for both in-line and hand-held use to decrease inspection time while improving indication visibility
- Portable & Hand-Held: Compact form factor for field inspections, inspection booths, and in-line production environments
Using the EV6500’s Dual-Light Capability Effectively: The EV6500’s integrated white light LEDs are one of its most practical features — but the order in which you use them matters. Always complete your UV-A fluorescent inspection first, then switch to white light for indication marking and documentation. Turning on white light during fluorescent inspection will reduce your eyes’ dark adaptation and can cause you to miss dim indications.
With a 10-inch beam, the EV6500 covers significantly more area per pass than standard 6–7 inch lamps. To take full advantage, maintain a consistent lamp-to-surface distance of 15 inches (38 cm) as specified in ASTM E3022 and use slow, deliberate passes with slight overlap to ensure no area is missed.
The 7,000 µW/cm² output exceeds the ASTM E1417 minimum of 1,000 µW/cm² by a wide margin — verify irradiance at the inspection surface with a calibrated UV radiometer at the start of each shift to maintain compliance.
