Portable UV measurement devices

Handheld UV measurement devices provide precise and reliable monitoring of UV lamp performance. Depending on the application, customers can choose between different configurations: compact units with built-in UV receiver diodes for direct surface measurements, cable-connected handheld devices with external sensors for flexible operation at a safe distance or compact USB-type sensors that plug directly into compatible systems for instant readings.

All devices feature clear displays and intuitive operation, allowing QA teams and operators to quickly detect performance issues such as dirty reflectors, aging lamps or unsuitable ink formulations. Regular measurements help prevent production errors, optimize maintenance planning and ensure that UV systems continue to operate at peak efficiency.

Compact handheld UV meters with fully integrated measurement technology are ideal for paint and coating drying applications. The entire sensing system is built into a robust metal housing, making these devices easy to handle and highly portable. They allow quick, precise UV intensity checks on surfaces, but are designed for short exposure tests only, as prolonged irradiation may damage the electronics due to heat from the UV lamp. Perfect for rapid quality control and spot measurements in industrial coating lines.

Using optional sensor adapters mounted directly in the UV module housing, UV intensity can also be measured right beneath the lamp – unaffected by potential contamination of reflectors or quartz glass. These flexible options enable accurate performance checks in coating lines, laboratory conveyor belts, flatbed printers and even inline UV lamps in UVC water treatment systems, ensuring consistent UV curing quality and maximum process reliability.
