About Tritium tube:
A Tritium tube is an light source powered by the radioactive decay of tritium (H3) gas.
The Tritium tube consists of a glass container filled with tritium gas. The inside walls of the enclosure are coated with a phosphor. As the tritium decays, it emits Beta particles (high energy electrons). These electrons stimulate the phosphor, causing it to glow. No external source is required and the lights are very reliable. This has led to their broad application in emergency exit signage.
The lifetime of a betalight is limited by the half-life of the tritium gas (12.3 years); the light will glow with exponentially less light over time, but the service lifetime of betalights is usually quoted as ten to fifteen years. No external radiation is produced during normal operation, although rupture of the glass capsule will release the radioactive tritium gas contained within. Because of this, used betalights should be returned to their manufacturer rather than incinerated or landfilled.
