1207 – Wireless UV Sensor
12 / 20 | Revision: 0 | DS182
Practical Investigations
The Smart Wireless UV Sensor can be used to investigate a number of scientific experiments such as:
Using the Slow range:
Absorption of ultraviolet by different types of clothing (not related to colour)
Whether the colour of clothing affects absorption of UV
Investigate the UV protection provided by sunglasses
Investigate absorption of UV radiation by suntan lotion
Investigate how different material like plastic, glass (auto glass comparison), clothes, soft drinks,
etc. absorb or reflect UV light
Direct or diffuse solar radiation - a considerable amount of UV does not come directly from the sun
but is scattered by the atmosphere
Different light levels produce different UV levels
Using the Fast range:
Variation of UV along a fluorescent tube compared to light output
