Abstract

An ultraviolet gas discharge lamp (18) having contact pins (26) extending from abase cap (34) toward an opposing end in reverse pin fashion. The lamp is placed within a conduit or duct (12) for disinfecting air or water flowing within the conduit. The reverse contact pins that extend toward the opposing end mate with contact holes (30) in a socket (16) attached to the conduit through which the lamp is inserted. The lamp is only energized when the lamp is fully inserted into the duct and is de-energized upon removing the lamp from the duct. A shroud may protect the pin. A window may be incorporated in the base cap so as to visually confirm that the lamp is energized and radiating. A key and mating receiver may be used on the base cap and the socket so as to prevent accidental insertion of an inappropriate lamp. A locking latch may also be included.
