Abstract |
Comparison of spectroradiometric and meter measurements of a series of ultraviolet radiation sources indicates that a wide divergence between readings can occur. We found that with a xenon are filtered as a solar simulator producing UV-A (320–400 nm) and UV-B (290–320 nm) radiation, the meter can either over-or underestimate the emission of the source when different cutoff filters are used. The most severe discrepancy appears with the UV-B meter reading, although the UV-A reading can also be problematic. Meters should be calibrated against the specific sources they will be used to measure.
