To power a uv led all we need is the right voltage and current.
Uv lamp input voltage.
This system requires a high voltage amperage power supply typically a magnetic ballast transformer with a high voltage capacitor bank.
Ballast input voltage 220vac.
Since lamp voltages can exceed the safe measuring range of most meters a potential transformer pt is required.

They utilize a high voltage charge to ionize a mercury gas mixture in the lamp creating a plasma that emits uv light.
There are 3 three main components in a power supply for uv curing lamp magnetic choke electronic ballast and constant wattage transformer.
A typical 100 1 ratio is normally used.
How to measure lamp voltage.
Input current to ballast 10 000 0 92 0 90 220 44 47 amps.
Capacitive reactance ballasts overcome this problem by the use of capacitors connected in series with the lamps.
These capacitors maintain a constant voltage output to the lamp even when the input voltage varies and is the more efficient of the two.
A resistor is needed so that we can bias and limit the current so that the correct amount flows to the led.
An ideal uv lamp power supply system works to ensure constant voltage and power to the lamp and preventing the risk of damage or loss through power surge when it is being used.
