  • Page 3: Introduzione

    INTRODUCTION The LPUVA02 radiometer measures the global irradiance in the UVA spectral range on a flat surface (W/m ). Measured irradiance is the result of the sum of direct solar irradiance and of diffuse irradiance. The radiometer can also be used for monitoring indoor UVA emissions. Available in the following versions: •...
  • Page 4: Working Principle

    2 WORKING PRINCIPLE LPUVA02 radiometer is based on a solid state sensor, the spectral match with the de- sired curve is obtained using a special filter. The relative spectral response is reported on figure 2.1. Fig. 2.1 The radiometer is provided with a 50 mm external diameter dome in order to supply a suitable protection of the sensor to the weather agents.

    3 INSTALLATION Before installing the radiometer, refill the cartridge containing silica-gel crystals. Silica gel absorbs humidity in the dome chamber and prevents, in particular climatic condi- tions, condensation on the internal walls of the domes and measurement alteration. Do not touch the silica gel crystals with your hands while refilling the cartridge. Carry out the following instructions in an environment as drier as possible: 1.
  • Page 6 • The radiometer must be mounted in an easy-to-reach location in order to clean the dome regularly and carry out maintenance. At the same time, make sure that no buildings, constructions, trees or obstructions exceed the horizontal plane where the radiometer lies. If this is not possible, select a site where obstructions in the path of the sun from sunrise to sunset do not exceed 5 degrees of elevation.

    4 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS LPUVA02… has a 4-pole connector and uses the CPM12AA4... optional cables. The metallic housing of the radiometer should preferably be grounded ( ) locally. In this case, do not connect the wire of the cable corresponding to the housing to prevent ground loops. Only if it is not possible to ground locally the metallic case of the radiometer, connect the wire of the cable corresponding to the housing to ground.

    4.2 LPUVA02AC CONNECTIONS The radiometer LPUVA02AC has 4…20 mA output and requires 10…30 Vdc external power supply. It is to be connected to a power supply and an instrument with 4…20 mA input as shown in fig. 4.2. The load resistance of the instrument reading the signal must be ≤...

    5 MEASUREMENT Below are the ways to calculate the irradiance. 5.1 LPUVA02 Each radiometer is distinguished by its own sensitivity (or calibration factor) S ex- pressed in µV/(Wm ) and shown in the label on the radiometer (and in the calibration report).
  • Page 11: Maintenance

    6 MAINTENANCE In order to grant measurements high accuracy, it is important to keep the glass dome clean. Consequently, the more the dome will be kept clean, the more measurements will be accurate. You can wash it using water and standard papers for lens. If necessary, use pure ETHYL alcohol.
