Irradiance Meters
These low cost meters have a digital display, a 9VDC battery, are easy to operate. Irradiance meters are used for measuring UV Index, and Solar Panel Power.
Solarmeter offers NIST-Traceable Factory Calibration service for your instrument. We recommend this service for all meters over 12 months old. The calibration procedure is easy: 1) Order calibration here by adding the quantity desired to the cart. 2) After checking out, please print out the receipt along with your full contact information, and ship that paperwork along with your well-packed Solarmeter back to us: Solarmeter Calibrations 100 East Glenside Ave. Glenside, PA USA 19038 3) If shipping internationally, please make sure to ship door to door. 4) We will calibrate and notify you when finished to arrange shipment back to you.
The semiconductor UV sensor consists of a photodiode chip and a UV filter. The sensor is completely insensitive to visible light longer than 400 nm and infrared radiation, since its spectral response covers only the UV region from 260 to 400 nm. Applications of the sensor include solar UV detection, as the spectral response is well matched to the solar UV spectrum.
The semiconductor UV sensor consists of a GaAsP photodiode chip and a UV filter which is completely insensitive to visible light longer than 400 nm and infrared radiation, since its spectral response covers only the UV region from 260 to 400 nm. Applications include solar UV detection (as the spectral response is well matched to the solar UV spectrum) and tanning lamps peaking near 365 nm (“new era” fluorescent and “high pressure” HID.)
The sensor consists of a GaAsP photodiode and a UV filter. It is completely insensitive to visible light longer than 400nm and infrared radiation, because its spectral response only covers the UVA region from 320-400nm.
