The PMA2102 detector gives an accurate measurement of the biologically
weighted ultraviolet radiation from sunlight or artificial light sources,
also called sunburning UV radiation (SUV). Its spectral response follows
closely the erythema action spectrum. |
APPLICATIONS
 | Meteorology |
 | Agriculture |
 | Environmental monitoring |
 | Industrial control |
 | Material testing |
 | UV-B transmission measurements |
 | Educational |
|
| The
PMA2102 detector is designed to operate in outdoor environment. A built-in
temperature sensor and compensation algorithm correct for the temperature
coefficient of the UV sensor. |
| A Teflon diffuser assures an angular response close to a cosine function for
incident angles up to 50 making it suitable for measurements of diffuse radiation (sky
radiation), often the major component of solar UV. |
