UV phototherapy lamp light meter X1-RCH-116 series

Optimized for precise UV Curing measurements High Stability in High-Temperature Environment and under Intense UV Radiation, as is common in UV curing systems Especially designed for LED UV Curing Light Sources (UV-A and Blue Light) Four-Channel USB Optometer with separate UV Irradiance Detector Including Calibration for low measurement uncertainty Individual Calibration Entries ensures that UV Curing Dose is correctly measured for the spectral emission range of the LED curing light source UV Curing Industry uses UV-A and Blue Light Radiation In optical curing applications, liquids (e.g. inks, coatings and adhesives) are excited by irradiation with high-intensity UV-A and blue light radiation. The UV curing or Blue Light curing process is activated by photoinitiators absorbing the UV or blue light energy which triggers the polymerization reactions (see Photoinitiators for UV and visible curing of coatings: Mechanisms and properties). In the past, only gas discharge lamps provided sufficient intensity within the photoinitiators’ wavelength range for this purpose. Today, these are increasingly being replaced by LEDs for UV Curing that emit in the UV and blue spectral range. In order to ensure optimal triggering of the polymerization, the irradiance of the UV lamp must be set in accordance with the corresponding process parameters. In continuous operation, the constancy of the irradiance must be regulated and readjusted when necessary depending on the aging of the lamps. The required UV radiometer, especially its detector, must be able to withstand the high-intensity UV and blue light radiation as well as the relatively high temperatures.
