Since the beginning, we here at the Solar Light Company have sought to provide our customers with high-quality products that will enable them to ensure the well-being and protection of all living things. One device that we’re particularly fond of and that is available through our Solarmeter® brand, is the Model 6.2 UV Meter.
What is the Model 6.2 UV Meter?
Do you work at a zoo, own a pet store, or own pet reptiles, and want to make sure those UVB-emitting devices you purchased are allowing your reptiles to properly synthesize Vitamin D in their skin? Well, the Model 6.2 UV Meter will be able to tell you whether or not your reptiles are getting too much or too little of what they need.
With this device, which is handheld, compact, and durable, you can get a much better idea of how much UVB radiation a device is emitting, and thus make sure that the reptiles you are taking care of are getting the proper amount of UVB radiation. After all, there are many different species of reptiles, and each has its different needs.
Aside from being efficient at testing reptile lamps, the Model 6.2 UV Meter can also be used for a handful of other application such as acrylic shield transmission, lamp UVB intensity and aging, and eyewear UV block comparison. Reptile keepers should keep in mind that when using the Model 6.2 UV Meter to compare the output of different lamps, they should consider the readings as relative as opposed to absolute because of the different spectral power distributions each lamp has. The Model 6.2 UV Meter has many features, and those who would like to learn more can certainly feel free to reach out to us at any time.
At the Solar Light Company, we are always looking to offer products to our customers that are innovative, and provide for better readings, but are still available at prices they can afford.
