In the past, the question frequently posed: ,,How can the UV-unit be checked and
when do the UV-lamps and reflectors have to be replaced'?"
Another question was: ,, Which intensity of UV-radiation is achieved at that very
moment and how can a constant product quality be guaranteed?"
The indication of the wattage of the UV-unit in Watt per cm says nothing at all about
which intensity of UV-radiation arrives actually at the substrate. What is the use of a
UV-unit being set to full load but with lamps and reflectors being strongly soiled or
having been in operation for several thousand hours thus achieving only an
insufficient intensity of UV-radiation or the supply voltage not being constant thus not
reaching the intensity of radiation? Despite maximum electrical capacity, the
customer will have to envisage drying problems.
All these questions have induced our company to develop a continuous UVmonitoring
technology which can also be used during production (see fig. 1).
