Spectroradiometer UVpad E: Precise, spectral UV measurements
The UVpad E is a spectroradiometer with an external sensor for measuring UV irradiance, UV dose and spectrum. 512 photodiodes cover the wavelength range from 240 nm to 480 nm ± 5 nm at a spectral bandwidth of 2 nm; the measuring range runs from 2 to 5000 mW/cm², and from 25 to 20,000 mW/cm² in the high-power version. The classification into UVA, UVB and UVC is standard-compliant and traceable.
The UVpad E combines the benefits of the spectral measuring technology with a handheld and easy-to-operate radiometer. The UVpad E is technically based on our successful radiometer UVpad. With the external sensor and an optimized device software, it is even more precise and easier to operate.
Use the spectroradiometer UVpad E for an accurate measurement of the UV irradiance and for comparisons of different UV lamps and UV LEDs. 512 photodiodes measure the spectrum in the wavelength range of 240 – 480 nm. The classification in UVA, UVB and UVC is performed according to international standards and traceable. The calibration to only one light source is omitted.
During the measurement, the spectrum is shown on the graphic display. The irradiances for UVA, UVB, UVC and VIS are available by the click of a button. In the background, the spectrum is already recorded. While measuring, the dose and the chronological irradiance sequence can additionally be documented. Spectra and measurement data can be exported and evaluated with the provided software. In addition, the UVpad E can be used as a classical PC controlled spectrometer.
Of course, UVpad E is factory-calibrated upon delivery, long-term stable and precise. Optionally, we offer an accredited DAkkS calibration and testing to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018-03.
With our radiometers RM-12, RMD Pro and the spectroradiometer UVpad E, we cover the entire range of the UV measuring technology. We would be pleased to assist you selecting a suitable UV measuring device.

Connect the UVpad to the PC in order to indicate, evaluate and save the measurements. Due to the simple comparison of the measurement data, changes in the spectrum, irradiance or dose are possible at the touch of a button. With each measurement, the measurement data and time are saved. With the ability to save comments, you will always maintain an overview, even with various measurements.
