Radiometer offers repeatable measurement of visible light.

Press Release Summary:




With spectral sensitivity from 395-465 nm (visible portion of spectrum), ACCU-CAL 50 V radiometer measures intensities from 1 mW/cm² to 40 W/cm² and visible light energy emitted from lightguides (3, 5, and 8 mm), flood systems, and conveyors. It provides monitoring control for light curing processes. Specially designed photo sensor assembly protects photo sensor from high temperatures sometimes associated with high-intensity spot lamps.

New DYMAX ACCU-CAL(TM) 50V Visible Radiometer for Use with Visible Light Curing Systems



Consistent curing requires consistent light intensity. The new ACCU-CAL(TM) 50V radiometer from DYMAX is simple to operate and offers repeatable measurement of visible light. The ACCU-CAL 50V can measure visible light energy emitted from lightguides (3 mm, 5 mm, and 8 mm), flood systems, and conveyors. With a spectral sensitivity from 395 to 465 nm (visible portion of the spectrum), the ACCU-CAL 50V measures intensities from 1 mW/cm2 to 40 W/cm2. A specially designed photo sensor assembly protects the photo sensor from the high temperatures sometimes associated with today's high-intensity spot lamps.

There are three reasons to use a radiometer:
o Maintaining Light Curing Processes - A radiometer measures whether a light curing system is providing sufficient intensity levels required for successful curing processes. Radiometers provide the same monitoring control for light curing processes that a thermometer would provide for measuring temperature in thermal-curing processes.
o Providing Worker-Friendly Light Curing Processes - The ACCU-CAL 50V is sufficiently sensitive to measure the intensity of stray or reflected visible light (as little as 1 mW/cm2) to ensure the safety of operators and surrounding workers.
o Measuring Transmission Rates Through Substrates - A radiometer can be used to measure the energy transmission levels of usable curing-energy wavelengths through substrates. This will assure that sufficient energy is reaching the curable resins through substrates that absorb and attenuate needed energy.

DYMAX Corporation is a leading technology-based company specializing in the formulation, manufacture and service of advanced assembly adhesives, coatings, epoxies, masking resins, and light curing systems.
