With the UV Scan MACS powered by PRUUVE, Hönle offers an innovative UV dose measurement system for precise and reproducible measurements in laboratories and UV processes.
The UV Scan MACS sets new standards for the simple and accurate determination of UV dose. This innovative measurement system is based on a patented technology – combining photophysics and optics – and ensures maximum reliability, reproducibility, and ease of use.
Easy Application, Accurate Results The process begins with calibrating the test strip using the macsReader device. A supplied stencil helps to position the strip correctly under the reader’s detector.
Next, the measuring strip is sticked to the substrate and then passes through the UV irradiation of the plant. After exposure to the installed UV lamps, the macsReader is used again, now to determine the applied UV dose at the defined measuring point. The measured UV dose is displayed on the macsReader in mJ/cm². Good to know: The displayed value corresponds to the sum of the measurement values for the UVA, UVB, and UVC ranges of the proven Power Puck II measuring device from EIT 2.0.
Unmatched Accuracy Even for Demanding Printing Processes The self-adhesive and flexible macsStrips are suitable even for applications where conventional test strips often fail. In addition to horizontal UV processes, macsStrips are used on vertical surfaces, roll-to-roll applications, and other hard-to-reach areas – delivering uniquely precise measurement results in all cases. Another key advantage is the easy storage: under normal room conditions, macsStrips have a shelf life of about twelve months.
