Abstract:
A light source unit includes a plurality of light emitting devices and outputs ultraviolet light as irradiating light. A drive circuit supplies a drive current Id to the plurality of light emitting devices. A sensing unit senses a trouble in the plurality of light emitting devices. A controller controls the drive current Id in accordance with a result of sensing by the sensing unit. When an output of the light source unit is reduced due to a trouble in one or some of the plurality of light emitting devices, the controller controls the drive current Id of a plurality of light emitting devices other than the light emitting device in trouble so as to compensate reduction in the output of the light source unit.

Claim (Index 6):
The ultraviolet irradiation device according to  claim 1 , wherein\n when wavelength characteristics of the irradiating light changes due to a trouble in one or some of the plurality of light emitting devices, the controller controls the drive current of each of the light emitting devices so as to cancel the change in the wavelength characteristics.
