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 254nm 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 86127C UV light meter measure UV dose (energy) ?

    The 86127C UV light meter can detect the UV radiation intensity and UV dosage (Energy). 

  2. 2. The difference between 86126C and 86127C 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 WeChat mini program via Bluetooth and the radiation intensity of the germicidal lamp can be monitored in real time through the WeChat mini program. 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) 86127C is a professional instrument for measuring the radiation intensity of UVC germicidal lamps. It adopts an integrated design and is easy to operate. 86127C can be set to automatically shut down within 1-255 minutes, and can record up to 9 groups of data.

  3. 3. Can 86127C UV light meter measure the wavelength of germicidal lamps?

    No, the 86127C 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 254nm germicidal lamp.

    1) Although the spectral response range of 86126C or 86127C or UVC probe is 230-280nm, the measured peak wavelength is 254nm, and the response at other wavelengths is very weak. The low-pressure mercury lamp  currently known only has a peak wavelength at 254nm, if the test data is very low, the germicidal lamp peak wavelength may not be 254nm 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 86127C 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).
