Strong UV Radiation Sensors – UV-Cure_plus
UV-Cure_plus – High-Intensity UV Radiation Sensor for Industrial Curing, Printing, and Process Control Applications
The UV-Cure_plus from SGLUX GmbH is a high-intensity ultraviolet radiation sensor specifically designed for industrial UV curing, printing, and coating processes.
It features a robust Silicon Carbide (SiC) or Gallium Nitride (GaN) detector combined with precision optics to measure extremely strong UV irradiance levels up to several W/cm².
The sensor’s flat spectral response (200–400 nm) supports broadband measurement of UVC, UVB, and UVA radiation, ensuring accurate lamp performance verification in production environments.
With fast response times, temperature-stable calibration, and excellent resistance to photodegradation, the UV-Cure_plus guarantees repeatable measurements under continuous high-power exposure.
Its IP67 aluminium housing, integrated amplifier, and NIST/PTB-traceable calibration make it ideal for quality assurance, process automation, and lamp-output monitoring in industrial curing lines.
Understanding Strong UV Radiation Sensors - UV-Cure_plus
The UV-Cure_plus sensor measures high-intensity UV radiation from curing lamps used in printing, coating, and adhesive bonding systems.
It converts the optical power into a calibrated voltage signal proportional to irradiance, enabling closed-loop control or process validation.
Using advanced SiC or GaN detector technology, the UV-Cure_plus withstands prolonged UV exposure without sensitivity drift.
Its broad spectral range and temperature-compensated design ensure precise, long-term stable readings even in hot industrial environments.
With traceable calibration and plug-and-play connectivity, the UV-Cure_plus is an essential component for process monitoring, lamp maintenance, and curing efficiency optimisation.
