Features

Provide a-meter long hook making measurement in line with specifications

The 86126C UV intensity tester is based on the detection requirements of 1 meter distance specified in the "WST 367-2012 Regulation of disinfection technique in healthcare settings" and a 1 meter test hook is provided

Connected with exclusive APP through Bluetooth, testing away from UVC damage

The UVC light meter comes with a Bluetooth data transmission function. After connecting a dedicated mobile phone APP, the data can be wirelessly monitored from a certain distance to avoid being burned by ultraviolet rays when viewing the data on site

Intelligent statistical data function

86126C UV irradiance meter has intelligent statistical data function. It is able to count the real-time power value, maximum value, minimum value, average value and energy value of the light source and record the measurement time

enabling unattended measurement

The UV light meter can be set to automatically shut down within 0-10 minutes. The test data will be automatically saved when the instrument is turned off, enabling unattended measurement. The NO.1 data displayed on the screen when the machine is turned on is the latest test data. The instrument can record a total of 25 sets of data

the accumulated energy value is automatically counted and showed on the screen when users set the meter to display them

high-precision UVC filters and professional UV sensors reduce measurement errors

Digital signal processing is completed inside the probe, which is not susceptible to interference and provides excellent test accuracy

Provide PC software

86126C UV intensity detector is equipped with USB communication port and dedicated PC software. The test data can be exported to the EXCEL by computer software. The test report can also be generated and printed

Qualifications and Standards

" WST 367-2012 Regulation of disinfection technique in healthcare settings " A.3 Monitoring of the Effect of Ultraviolet Disinfection

  • UV light meter measurement method

    After turning on the UV lamp for 5min, place the UV light meter probe with a measuring wavelength of 253.7nm at the center of 1m vertical distance under the tested UV lamp. The special UV lamp is measured at the recommended distance. After the meter is stable, the displayed value is the irradiance value of the ultraviolet lamp.

  • Judgment of results

    For ordinary 30W straight tube UV lamps, the irradiation intensity of the new lamp should meet the requirements of GB 19258; the use of ultraviolet lamp irradiation intensity ≥70μW / cm² is qualified; the 30W high-intensity ultraviolet lamp irradiation intensity ≥180μW / cm² is qualified.

FAQ

  1. 1. Can 86126C UV light meter measure UV dose (energy) ?

    The 86126C UV light meter can detect the UV radiation intensity and UV dosage (Energy). 

  2. 2. The difference between 86126C and 86125+UVC-X0 UV light meter

    1) The radiation intensity measurement range of 86126C is 0-2000μW/cm2, and the radiation intensity measurement range of 86125+UVC-X0 is 0-200000μW/cm2;

    2) 86126C is equipped with a 1-meter test hook, which can be connected to the mobile phone APP via Bluetooth and the radiation intensity of the germicidal lamp can be monitored in real time through the APP. 86126C can also be connected to PC software to export test data and print reports. 86125+UVC-X0 UV light meter doesn't have the functions described above. 

  3. 3. Can 86126C UV light meter measure the wavelength of germicidal lamps?

    No, the 86126C UV light meter can only measure the UV radiation intensity of the germicidal lamp, and cannot measure the wavelength. If you need to measure the wavelength, you need to use more professional equipment,such as spectrometer.

  4. 4. Two ways to determine whether it is a 253.7nm germicidal lamp.

    1) Although the spectral response range of 86126C or UVC probe is 230-280nm, the measured peak wavelength is 253.7nm, and the response at other wavelengths is very weak. The low-pressure mercury lamp  currently known only has a peak wavelength at 253.7nm, if the test data is very low, the germicidal lamp peak wavelength may not be 253.7nm or it's unqualified.

    2) Use a spectrometer to measure the spectrum of the germicidal lamp.

  5. 5. Whether a traceable calibration certificate is included?

    The 86126C UV light meter can be ensured to pass the inspection of the Chinese Authoritative Metrology Institute and obtains the calibration certificate (approved by CNAS and ilac-MRA), but the cost of the calibration certificate needs to be paid separately, and the cost is about US $290 (UV intensity and UV dosage inspection).
