Then the log sheet shows the real story: irradiance drifting down, kill rates slipping, and rework climbing for no obvious reason. The lamp itself is rarely the failure. It’s the film of scaling, organics, and condensation that scatters and soaks up UVC before it ever hits the target. If you can’t measure actual lamp output at the process plane, you can’t back up your disinfection claims. That’s why intensity monitoring is the only honest way to confirm performance, and why keeping the quartz sleeve clean is step one—otherwise your readings are just wishful thinking.</p>
