Remark
1
Radiation sensor With the radiation sensor, the high-intensity radiation
(UVA, BLUE or LED) is absorbed and carried to the
actual detector (4). The measuring intervals must be
kept short to prevent aging of the sensor.
2
Adapter If it is not the intensity value at the actual irradiation
area that is to be determined, but rather the curing
lamp itself is to be checked, it is recommended that
the respective adapter ( aperture/Apt) is used. The
adapters center the light guide over the sensor,
while parts of the sensor are covered. It is essential
to select the adapter that reduces the sensor area
(3, 5, 5 mm adapters) in the parameter set of the
display unit. Otherwise, the radiation intensity is
determined on the basis of the 9 mm area of the
sensor, which results in faulty measuring or
misinterpretation.
3
Light guide The optical radiation is carried to the detector via
the light guide. Protect the light guide against
mechanical damage/impair. The minimum bending
radius is 100 mm.
4
Detector The radiation detector converts the radiation into
an electrical signal. This signal is forwarded to the
display via the signal line. The detector is spatially
separated from the sensor as temperature
fl uctuations at the detector may falsify the
measuring signal.
5
Signal line with plug The detector head is connected to the display unit
by means of the plug. The signal line is made of a
high-quality, fail-safe coaxial cable.
