The UVM3059 digital UV light meter is designed for measuring ultraviolet radiation, primarily for use in non-destructive material testing. It was developed according to the specifications of ISO 3059.

The housing is dust and splash-proof according to protection class IP54. The optical sensor is integrated into the surface of the meter. Learn more: https://www.magnaflux.com/NA/EN/Produ....

Complying with Airbus AITM Requirements – How to Check UV Stability
LED lamps are at full intensity when turned on, and they can be used immediately for examinations. But for a short time after the lamp is turned on, the UV-A intensity drops before leveling off. The time before the intensity levels off is the “stabilization time”. That’s how long the lamp should remain on before checking UV-A intensity to make sure the reading is accurate.

According to ASTM E3022, the measurement of stabilization time is the responsibility of the lamp manufacturer during model-type qualification testing. That’s because LED stabilization is determined by the design of the lamp and how the LEDs are cooled, not by individual components. The stabilization time will not change significantly between individual lamps of the same model, but with the new specs from Airbus, users who are required to comply with Airbus AITM 6-1001 are now required to check their UV stabilization performance monthly.

How to Comply
Stabilization of an LED lamp is defined as three measurements taken at 30-minute intervals that are within +/-3% variance. The actual instructions can get complicated; therefore, we have developed a simple procedure that will work for any LED UV-A lamp:

1. Secure the lamp in a stationary fixture and position the sensor of a calibrated UV-A radiometer at 15 in / 38 cm from the lamp filter to the face of the sensor.
2. Turn on the lamp and record the UV-A intensity. After 5 minutes, record the UV-A intensity again. Repeat every 5 minutes until you reach 60 minutes elapsed time. This is the first time you can check for stabilization.
3. Taking the readings at 0 min, 30 min, and 60 min, calculate the average and standard deviation of those three readings. If the standard deviation is less than 3%, the lamp has stabilized and the stabilization time would be 0 minutes, the elapsed time of the first reading. If not, then continue recording the UV-A intensity every 5 minutes.
With each new reading, calculate the average and standard deviation using three readings at 30-minute intervals. For example, use readings taken at 5 min, 35 min, and 65 min or readings taken at 10 min, 40 min, and 70 min. If the result is less than 3%, then the stabilization time is the elapsed time of the first reading used.
4. When checking stabilization time, it’s very important to use a fixture to hold the lamp in place for the full test. UV-A intensity follows the inverse-square law, so any small changes in the distance to the UV-A meter are multiplied and will skew the results. This test cannot be done by hand.
