UV-A Performance
The MB 3.0 Zeus delivers industry-leading UV-A output for its class:
- UV-A Intensity: approximately 4,500 µW/cm² at 38 cm (15 inches)
- Peak Wavelength: 365 nm
- Beam Diameter: approximately 9 inches / 22 cm (above 1,000 µW/cm²)
- White Light Output: 1,076 lux (100 fc) — integrated white light LED for post-inspection surface review
A built-in current regulator ensures consistent, homogeneous beam output throughout the entire battery life — no dimming, no drop-off, and no inconsistency in UV-A intensity from start to finish of the inspection shift.
Key Features
- UV-A intensity: 4,500 µW/cm² at 38 cm — exceeds all major NDT standard minimum requirements
- Integrated white light — 1,076 lux white LED for post-inspection surface review without needing a second lamp
- IP68 waterproof — fully submersible; rated for continuous immersion
- Penetrant resistant — sealed and protected against full exposure to penetrant chemicals during FPI inspections
- Extreme temperature rated — designed for continuous 24/7 operation across a wide temperature range
- Lightweight — battery unit weighs just 0.68 kg (1.5 lbs)
- Acoustic battery indicator — audible low-battery alert so inspectors are never caught off guard mid-inspection
- Battery runtime — up to 3.5 hours of continuous use per charge
- Simultaneous charge and operate — Power Supply Unit (PSU) available separately for uninterrupted operation during extended inspections
- No solarization — UV-A LEDs paired with high-quality white light block filters that do not degrade over time — consistent clean UV-A output for the full lamp service life
L118 vs. L122 — Zeus Battery Configurations
| SKU | Model | Athena Spray Can Holder | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| L118 — This Product | Zeus Battery | Not included | UV-A + white light inspection lamp — clean, lightweight configuration |
| L122 | Zeus Battery with Athena | Factory installed | Fluorescent MPI/FPI with simultaneous aerosol application |
The L118 is the preferred configuration for operators who do not require simultaneous aerosol application during inspection, or whose inspection procedure calls for a separate aerosol application step. The Athena spray can holder (Part No. A503) is available as a standalone accessory and can be added to the L118 unit at any time if requirements change.
MB 3.0 Series Model Comparison
| Model | SKU | UV-A Intensity | White Light | Athena |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zeus Battery — This Product | L118 | 4,500 µW/cm² | Yes — 1,076 lux | Not included |
| Zeus Battery with Athena | L122 | 4,500 µW/cm² | Yes — 1,076 lux | Factory installed |
| Hermes Battery | L123 | 4,500 µW/cm² | No | Available |
| Selene Battery | L140 | 9,000 µW/cm² | Yes — 1,076 lux | Available |
| Atlas Battery | L126 | 9,000 µW/cm² | No | Available |
The Zeus L118 is the recommended choice for inspectors who require both UV-A fluorescence detection and a strong white light for post-inspection review in a single, clean, lightweight unit — without the aerosol holder accessory.
