Meter measures UV light in curing systems
03 July 2018
Techsil has introduced a new UV-Meter from UV curing equipment specialist, Hönle. The UV-Meter measures intensity and dose of UV and UV-LED curing units and systems.

Using the clear, well-organised display, measured results can be read at a glance. This new generation design is compact and hence handy on the shop floor. An integrated USB port enables the upload of UV-Meter data easily to a PC or notebook, and recharges the lithium batteries which have a long service life.
The UV-Meter has a wide range of interchangeable sensors covering wavelengths 230 to 550nm – UVA, UVB, UVC and VIS, which makes it suitable for different manufacturing processes. Its compact sensors are only 14mm high to fit into small spaces and its two channel measuring means that different wavelength ranges can be recorded at the same time. The unit also has automatic sensor recognition
With measured data storage the UV-Meter can record a test series of intensity and dose as well as minimum and maximum average intensities. The integrated real-time clock ensures precise timed sampling of measured results.
Suitable for applications such as curing of adhesives, potting compounds coatings and inks; the UV-Meter offers:
- Cost saving - a single UV meter for all applications
- Measuring accuracy - traceable to PTB standards
- Process reliability - constant control of UV-intensity ensures consistent quality of UV-curing
- Certification - reliable calibration with certificates
- Tapes designed for electric vehicles
- RTV silicone adhesives achieve Airbus Industrial Qualification
- Bonding solutions
- Form-in-Place foam gasket service expands capacity
- Silicone adhesive sealant
- Beating the heat with silicone adhesives
- Techsil acquires adhesive supplier
- Electronics adhesives cure with UV, visible light or moisture
- Adhesives for electronics industry
- Light curable adhesive
