New UV-light meter is compact, versatile and easy to use

Techsil has a new UV-Meter available from UV curing equipment specialists, Hönle. The device measures intensity and dose of UV and UV-LED curing units and systems. Using the display, measured results can be seen at a glance. This new generation design is compact and extremely helpful on the shop floor. Another user-friendly characteristic is the integrated USB port which allows the upload of the device's data easily to a PC or notebook and recharges the lithium batteries which offer a long service life. The device has a broad range of interchangeable sensors covering wavelengths from 230nm to 550nm – UVA, UVB, UVC and VIS which makes it suitable for different manufacturing processes. Its small sensors are only 14mm high to fit into small spaces, and its two-channel measuring means that different wavelength ranges can be recorded at the same time. The unit also has automatic sensor recognition With measured data storage, the device can record a test series of intensity and dose as well as minimum and maximum average intensities. The integrated real-time clock ensures precisely timed sampling of measured results. The device is ideal for applications which include curing of adhesives, potting compounds coatings and inks.
