The SU-100 is an un-amplified analog sensor with a voltage output. The sensor incorporates a photodiode that measures combined UVA and UVB radiation. Typical applications include UV radiation measurement in outdoor environments (sensor is not recommended for long-term continuous outdoor deployment), laboratory use with artificial light sources (e.g., germicidal lamps), and monitoring the filter ability and stability of various materials. Sensor includes IP68 marine-grade stainless-steel cable connector 30 cm from head to simplify sensor removal and replacement for maintenance and recalibration.

Features:

Wide Range

Sensitive from 250 to 400 nm, spanning the solar UV and range of electric lamps.

Measurement Units

Calibration factors for photon flux density units [μmol m⁻² s⁻¹] and energy flux density [W m⁻²] are provided with each sensor allowing for rapid unit conversions.

Rugged, Self-cleaning Housing

The patented dome-shaped sensor head facilitates runoff of dew and rain, helping to keep the detector clean and minimizing errors caused by dust blocking the radiation path. Sensors are housed in a rugged anodized aluminum body and electronics are fully-potted.

Output Options

Analog and digital output options are available. Analog version is an unamplified voltage output. Sensor is available attached to a hand-held meter with digital readout.

Typical Applications

Applications include: UV radiation measurement in outdoor environments (sensor is not recommended for longterm continuous outdoor deployment), laboratory use with artificial light sources (e.g., germicidal lamps), and monitoring the filtering ability and stability of various materials.
