Description
This industrial UV radiation sensor monitors UV radiation from 240 to 395 nanometers. It uses a photodetector with an optical filter to generate a current signal proportional to UV intensity. Sensitivity varies with the angle of incidence. It has a range of 0 to 200 W/m² and measures in W/m². Supports MODBUS-RTU RS485 for customized monitoring via RS485 data logger.
With an IP68 rating and an operating temperature range of -30°C to 75°C, this rugged total irradiance sensor operates reliably outdoors. It ensures accurate measurement of UV radiation to help understand its impact on crops and ecosystems, providing a solid foundation for research.
Application
- Weather Observation: UV radiation sensors in meteorological stations measure UV intensity, aiding weather analysis and seasonal understanding.
- Agriculture: UV sensors monitor the effects of radiation on crop growth, optimizing agricultural practices.
- Environmental monitoring: Assess UV radiation in urban areas to understand its impact on health, the environment, and air quality.
- Ecological research: Study the influence of UV on ecosystems, plant and animal behavior, and life cycles.
Its measurements help understand the effects of UV radiation on crops and ecosystems, providing a strong research foundation. Whether in science or application, the UV Radiation Meter plays a vital role in environmental monitoring and data collection.
Using grape cultivation as a case study, UV radiation sensors help optimize photosynthesis, yield, fruit quality, and stress responses, while aiding in genetic trait research and site selection. These sensors provide valuable data for grape growing and crop research, contributing to the development and innovation of the grape industry.

Policies & Guidelines
Warranty, shipping, and purchasing information
- All prices are stated in US dollars (USD), unless otherwise indicated.
- Full payment must be received and confirmed before an order is prepared or dispatched.
- Payment may be made by bank transfer, Bitcoin, or USDT. The payment methods available for each order are displayed at checkout.
- Shipping charges are shown separately at checkout. The quoted shipping charge includes applicable import duties, taxes, and customs-clearance charges for the delivery destination.
- An electronic invoice is made available in the Customer’s account after payment confirmation. An official sales invoice also accompanies the shipment.
- Orders may be cancelled for a full refund before order preparation begins. Once preparation has begun, cancellation is subject to the order’s processing status.
- A Customer wishing to return a non-defective product must request the return within 30 days of delivery. The product must be returned in good condition with its official sales invoice.
- For a non-defective return, the Customer is responsible for return shipping. The refund covers the product price only; the original shipping charge is not refundable.
- Refunds for returned products are initiated after the returned goods have been received and their condition verified. Approved refunds are initiated within seven business days and returned through the original payment method.
- The refundable amount is based on the USD value paid for the product. Refunds for Bitcoin or USDT payments are calculated against that USD amount, rather than a fixed quantity of cryptocurrency. The time required for funds to reach the Customer depends on the payment method and processing provider.
