PCE-UV 40A Light Meter (0 lx ~ 10 klx; 0.1 lx; 0 W/m2 ~ +100 W/m2; 0.01 W/m2)

PCE-UV 40A Light Meter (0 lx ~ 10 klx; 0.1 lx; 0 W/m2 ~ +100 W/m2; 0.01 W/m2)

The PCE-UV 40A meter is an optimal solution designed to precisely analyze and evaluate two parameters: general illumination intensity (ranging from 0 lx to 10 klx with a 0.1 lx resolution) and ultraviolet radiation intensity (ranging from 0 W/m2 to 100 W/m2 with a 0.01 W/m2 resolution). The device integrates a dedicated detached optical sensor probe, enabling fast and safe environmental parameter checks without affecting the sample.

Key Features

Dual optical measurement system: The device is equipped with a silicon photodiode sensor combined with specialized UV and visible light spectral correction filters, ensuring accurate collection and analysis of both ultraviolet radiation intensity and light source illuminance.

Powerful parameter testing performance:

• Provides two flexible measuring ranges: Illuminance measurement from 0 to 10 klx and UV radiation measurement from 0 to 100 W/m2 (with compatible UV wavelengths suitable for UVA and UVB measurements).
• Fast sampling rate, high repeatability, strongly supporting radiation safety and lighting evaluation tasks.

Smart operation and connection system:

• Intuitive display screen: Large backlit LCD screen clearly displaying measurement parameters simultaneously or alternately, combined with friendly function buttons.
• Advanced data processing features: Integrates Data Hold, maximum/minimum (Max/Min) value recording, and automatic power-off functions to effectively save battery.

Durable materials and structure: Sturdy ergonomic handheld design, detached probe connected via an elastic cable allowing users to easily measure at difficult angles or complex lighting orientations, ensuring absolute safety for operators.

Power-optimized operation mechanism: Uses a standard battery (typically a 9V battery or equivalent depending on device configuration), providing durable operating performance for mobile fieldwork inspections.

Practical Applications

Thanks to its precise measurement capabilities for both general lighting and ultraviolet radiation, the PCE-UV 40A is widely applied across multiple industries:

• Occupational Safety & Healthcare: Testing and monitoring UV radiation leakage from industrial equipment, UV sterilization lamps, or evaluating outdoor working environments to protect worker health.
• Printing & UV Curing Technology: Measuring intensity of UV lamp systems used for drying adhesives, printing inks, and UV coatings in modern production lines.
• Scientific Research & Agriculture: Supporting solar energy measurement, checking UV radiation inside greenhouses or specialized optical laboratories.
