The ML4000LUX/UV Series of radio transmitters from Hanwell have a discreet design and provide accurate light (LUX) and Ultra Violet (UV) measurements.
Light (LUX) and Ultra Violet (UV) Monitoring
With the ML4000LUX/UV series of radio transmitters, users can perform light (LUX) and ultraviolet (UV) measurements using highly accurate sensors. The ML4000 series of light and UV radio transmitters are a range of sophisticated technology, enabling 24/7 site monitoring with instant alarm notification of breach to pre-set boundaries and historical data analysis.
The proportion of UV present (µW/Lumen), the amount of visible light LUX), and the total amount of UV (mW/ M2) can be measured.
LUX is measured in the range of 10 to 5000 LUX, which is adequate for environments where a LUX level of more than 600 is not usually required, though higher ranges can be delivered upon request. 20 to 2000 µW/Lumen is the UV range.
