SUV-A UV Radiometer
The Kipp & Zonen SUV-A is a dedicated UVA radiometer with digital Modbus output, measuring the UVA band of solar radiation with precise temperature correction.
- Range
- Spectral range: 315 to 400 nm
- Output
- Typical output range: 0 to 90 W/m²
- Supply
- 5 to 30 V DC
Overview
In detail
How it works
The SUV series re-engineers the earlier SUV5 total-UV radiometer into dedicated UVA, UVB and UVE (UV Index) models, using the latest detector technology, digital signal processing and Modbus® output.
Measurement
UVA accounts for around 95% of the UV radiation that reaches the earth's surface. It penetrates clouds and glass windows and the skin's second layer, and is used, for example, in tanning beds; it contributes to some types of sun damage, wrinkles and premature skin ageing.
