The OUE8A Series offers an energy-efficient hermetic TO-46 metal can packaged UV LED source providing a

uniform optical light pattern, high current pulse capability, ESD protection and a long operating lifespan. Devices

wavelength requirements of the industry, the OUE8A Series is divided into groups each with a total wavelength

range of only 5 nm. Each wavelength range is subdivided into optical power output ranges from a minimum of 1.8

mW to over 17.0 mW based on power out specifications listed below.
