Operation


Proper Usage of RGM-UVC meter for Lamp Aging Tests

- Wear eye protection when checking UV lamps (UV-block wrap around glasses).

- Allow lamps to warm-up prior to taking readings (at least 5 min).  

- When checking aging of lamps, keep measuring distance and locations constant.  

- Lamps should be replaced when output drops 30% to about 70% of their original (new) readings. Take overall reading at exposure distance, or check individual lamps close to surface. Keep track of hours vs. readings on a chart.

- If unsure of what original new values were, replace lamp(s) with new ones of the same kind and compare to old ones.  

- Do not subject the meter to extremes in temperature, humidity, shock or dust.  

- Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the intrument. Keep sensor free of oil, dirt, etc.
