Proper UVB Light distance?

I am looking to put a UVB light fixture inside of my beardie's terrarium. The light that I am planning on using is a Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 UVB T5HO 22' fluorescent tube. By my measurements, the spot that I plan to put it should be 9-10 inches from my beardie's basking spot. I am not using any kind of reflector. Does this sound like a safe distance to put the light?

Thank you to any who respond.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
