LS125 UV Light Meter Application
Ultraviolet light includes UVA band (315nm-420nm), UVB band (280nm-315nm) and UVC band (200nm-280nm). UVA band is mainly used in photocuring, lithographic exposure, ultraviolet light source, integrated circuit lithography and other industries; UVB band UV lamps mainly include physiotherapy lamps in hospitals and health care places, plant growth lamps and UVB fluorescent lamps for reptiles; UVC band also known as short-wave sterilization ultraviolet, ultraviolet germicidal lamps emit UVC short-wave ultraviolet. Ultraviolet germicidal lamps are mainly used for disinfection and sterilization. They are often used in hospitals, transfer windows of drug factories, disease control centers and sewage treatment plants.
The LS125 handheld UV measurement device is widely used. Many of the above industries require different ultraviolet probes to detect the radiation intensity or energy value. We can select the appropriate probe to use with the host refer to the application of the measured light source, the spectral response range and the probe test aperture.
