Autonomer UV-Index Transmitter
Autonomer UV-Index Transmitter for Continuous, Standalone Measurement and Wireless Transmission of Solar UV Radiation Levels
The Autonomer UV-Index Transmitter from SGLUX GmbH is a self-contained UV Index measurement and transmission system designed for continuous monitoring of solar ultraviolet radiation in outdoor environments.
It integrates a TOCON_E2 sensor, high-precision electronics, and a wireless data transmitter into a single weatherproof unit, delivering real-time UV Index (UVI) data for meteorological, safety, and environmental applications.
The system operates autonomously, powered by an internal battery or optional solar panel, and communicates via LoRaWAN, RS-485, or wireless network protocols, enabling remote deployment without maintenance.
With erythema-weighted spectral response, NIST/PTB-traceable calibration, and superior solar blindness, the Autonomer UV-Index Transmitter ensures reliable, biologically accurate readings.
Ideal for smart city networks, public health stations, agricultural monitoring, and industrial safety systems, it represents the next generation of autonomous UV Index sensing.
Understanding Autonomer UV-Index Transmitter
The Autonomer UV-Index Transmitter measures erythemally effective UV radiation (280–400 nm) and transmits the resulting UV Index values wirelessly to data servers, controllers, or cloud dashboards.
It combines a factory-calibrated TOCON_E2 sensor, amplifier, data processor, and wireless communication module in a sealed, weatherproof enclosure.
The unit is fully autonomous — requiring no external power or cabling — making it ideal for remote, long-term solar monitoring.
Its calibration ensures traceability to NIST/PTB standards, guaranteeing reliable, standardised UV Index data for environmental analysis and public safety systems.
