NEW UV-C Intensity Labels NEW

These photochromic intensity indicators are a reliable, low cost, simple, in-house method of monitoring UV intensity. These new labels are specifically targeted to show UV-C exposure and when exposed, the yellow labels undergo a gradual color change from yellow to blue that is directly related to the energy value received.

Made from the same exclusive material as the UV FastCheck Strips™, the New UV Intensity Labels™ (N010-004) have the same color changing principle as the Strips, but they have only 1 color changing square. The New UV Intensity Labels have a sensitivity range that is 5 times greater than the product they have replaced, the old UV Intensity Labels™ (N010-001).

The dramatic improvements over the old Intensity Labels™ include:

• Much greater color shift

• More stable, repeatable and consistent color change

• Not subject to increasing color changes at elevated temperatures

The adhesive backed label is placed on a sample product or substrate and processed to proper cure rate. The color deviation can easily be measured with a spectrophotometer to record color change or by comparing the colors to test labels created to known operating standards to determine lamp failure or processing inconsistency. NOTE: For best results, observe color change immediately after exposure to UV light as label may change.

If used on a regular basis, they can detect equipment problems at an early enough stage to prevent lengthy shutdowns. Daily tests can easily indicate a step by step calibration for an accurate reference within each batch. The use of a Digital Tachometer can help insure repeatable results.

Suggested Use: the Con-Trol-Cure® New Intensity Labels are especially useful in systems where other instruments are not practical, such as 3-D curing, web coating, container printing, medical sterilization, etc.

FEATURES:
• New UV Intensity Labels™ measure the entire UV spectrum
• Accurate visual determination of UV dose made possible
• Monitor UV dose in difficult-to-access curing environments
• Detect UV lamp degradation and equipment failures
• Provide the user with periodic assurance that their UV source is performing to expectations
• Greater rate of color change provides clearer, more precise UV dose determination
• Determine the dose profile in the 3D curing chambers or across wide webs to ensure even cure
• Measure the dose of sunlight in outdoor curing applications
• Evaluate and compare multiple UV light sources

SPECIFICATIONS:
• New UV Intensity Labels™ are available in packages of 990 labels (9 sheets of 110 labels per sheet.)
• New UV Intensity Labels™ Dimensions: ¾"H x 1"W (19mm x 25mm).

SHELF LIFE/STORAGE:
• Shelf life is currently rated at 12 months minimum.
• Usage well beyond current rating is possible with proper storage.
• Store in the original packaging out of direct light and away from excessive heat or moisture.
• Store package flat, not vertical.
• Ideal storage location is within a cool and dry location like a drawer.

Additional Uses
Great for school science projects and science fairs.
