Radiometer measures UV intensity of spots/floods/conveyors.
Press Release Summary:
Used to validate and monitor UV curing process, ACCU-CAL(TM) 50 performs repeatable measurements in UVA spectrum (320-395 nm) from 1 mW/cm² to 40.0 W/cm². It can also confirm that UV curing process complies with ACGIH safety guidelines for UV exposure. Featuring 12 month calibration period and photo-sensor assembly that protects against high temperatures, unit measures UV intensity as well as peak intensity and dose.
Original Press Release:
New Accu-Cal(TM) 50 Radiometer Offers Simple and Accurate UV Intensity Measurement of Spots, Floods, and Conveyors
A radiometer is required to validate and monitor a UV curing process. Most radiometers are capable of measuring intensity from only one type of UV curing system such as a spot lamp, a flood lamp, or a conveyor. The ACCU-CAL(TM) 50 radiometer is compatible with all three types of UV curing systems. In addition to measuring UV intensity, the ACCU-CAL(TM) 50 also measures peak intensity and dose.
The ACCU-CAL(TM) 50 radiometer is simple to operate and offers repeatable measurement in the UVA spectrum (320 nm - 395 nm) from 1 mW/cm² to 40.0 W/cm². The ACCU-CAL(TM) 50 radiometer is compatible with all DYMAX floods lamps and DYMAX conveyors as well as the standard 3 mm, 5 mm, and 8 mm lightguides used with DYMAX UV curing spot systems.
In addition to validating and monitoring the intensity of a UV curing process, the ACCU-CAL(TM) 50 radiometer can also be used to confirm that a UV curing process complies with the ACGIH safety guidelines for UV exposure. The ACGIH recommends that operators not be exposed to more than 1mW/cm2 of UVA intensity continuously (a cloudless day provides 3 to 6 mW/cm²).
The ACCU-CAL(TM) 50 radiometer is designed for industrial use. A special photo-sensor assembly protects the photo-sensor from the high temperatures sometimes associated with today's high intensity UV spot lamps. The 12 month calibration period cuts calibration costs in half versus competitive radiometers with only a six month calibration period.
Capable of measuring intensity, peak intensity, and dose on spots, floods, and conveyors, the ACCU-CAL(TM) 50 radiometer is one of the most versatile and easy to use UV radiometers on the market today.
