7. Product description
The UV meter allows precise measurement of radiant power of invisible ultraviolet radiation (UVA and UVB). The UV
radiation measurement finds its application in industrial sectors such as welding work (arc), electronics, photochemi-
cal processes or printing applications.
The device can also be used e.g. for laboratory tasks, in agriculture and horticulture. This includes weather and growth
studies as well as UV sterilisation, etc.
In the private sector, the meter can be used to easily and precisely determine the radiant power of solariums or the
sun, etc.
8. Power supply
The meter can be used as a mobile device with a battery or a rechargeable battery. During stationary operation or
long-term measurements, an optional power supply can be connected.
When connecting a power supply, the connection between the battery and the meter is automatically inter-
rupted. So the battery does not need to be removed for power supply operation.
