Sensor/Detector
Silicon Carbide (SIC) Photodiode packaged
in hermetically sealed UV glass window
cap.
Interference filter coating (Metal Oxide)
blocks UV above erythermal response
as show on Spectral Sensitivity Graph.
Operation
Press and hold push-button switch on
face of unit. Aim sensor window in top
panel of meter directly at UV source.
For tanning beds place meter at body
position. Note reading on LCD and record
if desired.
Battery operation voltage is 9V down
to 6.5V. Below 6.5V the LCD numbers
will begin to dim, indicating the need
for battery replacement. Under "typical"
service load, the battery should last
about 2 years.

Proper
Usage of Solarmeter ® Ultraviolet Radiometer
for Lamp Tests:
- Wear UV-block eye
protection when checking UV lamps.
- Allow lamps to warm-up
prior to taking readings (at least 5 min).
- Hold sensor close to lamp or acrylic to measure individual lamp MED intensity. Hold sensor at 25 cm above bench with canopy closed for body position reading. Te (Time to 4 MEDs in minutes) = 240 / MED/hr reading.
