Frequently Asked Questions about UV Integrator Instrumentation

 In order to better serve our users, we have been carefully summing up the experience values and integrated some common problems of different brands of UV meters.


1.A common name in the market :

Common names : ultraviolet energy meter, UV joule meter, UV energy tester, UV Integrator, UV Meter, UV Instrument

RUNWING 140, 1401 (made in Hong Kong) is one of the most common instruments on the market. RUNWING is a brand. 140 refers to the diameter of the energy meter, which has a disk-like structure and can be divided into two kinds of appearance with and without handle. The “handle shape” is patented by RUNWING.


2.What is the purpose or function of the energy meter?

UV coating, UV glue, such as one of the necessary tools in the process of production and testing, convenient for the customer to provide accurate indicator of curing, the data is often used to reflect the UV coating or UV glue in the instruction manual (for example, under the condition of 000mJ/cm2, after curing light can achieve the desired effect), to provide customers with more comprehensive and more thoughtful guidance information, used as a curing measures, reduce after-sales problems.

Production process used to ensure the consistency of process or product curing basic tools : by choosing energy meter, and measure the product standard curing energy value, namely the experience value, rather than the theoretical value. As a requirement of operation, timely information can be recorded by changing shifts or substitutions, and the consistency of curing quality of the same product can be strictly controlled.


3.What bands does the UV energy meter mainly test?

Usually more common are :

UV : 250-410nm, like RUNWING 140 and 1401. all of them are the most common type of test instruments, with the shape of disc, which is suitable for common process and experimental data. The general process can be used, and the cost input is relatively low.

UV-A : 315~410nm, UV-B : 280~315nm, UV-C : 230~280nm

The above three kinds of detection probes are suitable for testing the UV energy value of the corresponding frequency band respectively, which should be selected according to the needs. It is usually required by the experimental data and pursues accuracy.

The measuring accuracy of the above instruments is generally ±5%.


4.What is the general price of UV Energy Tester?

The price varies according to the quantity purchased. Please contact us directly for specific price.

5.Where do you normally do validation?

At present, there are three kinds of calibration methods :

First kind : send to the country of origin directly by the manufacturer directly check, and provide the manufacturer’s calibration report.

Second kind : to complete the calibration directly in China. It is generally sent to a regular unit with national calibration qualification for checking and provide a calibration report.

Third kind : send it directly to our company for comparison and verification, and we will provide the comparison verification report.

Suggestion : if the calibration report of the specified unit is not needed, the measurement accuracy can be achieved only by sending it to the company for comparison and calibration, which can achieve the purpose of use and save cost.


6.How often is it checked? How do I go through the formalities?

It is usually checked once a year without exceptions. Within one year, any aging or damage of the device can also be sent back to our company for maintenance, and the cost will be charged according to the actual occurrence of the project, and you will get free comparison and verification service.


7.What is the cost of the calibration?

Please consult customer service for details. Thank you.


8.What is the difference between RUNWING 140 and 1401 UV Joule Energy Integrator? Is the test standard the same as that of which country?

The test standards of the above two instruments are the same, except that they are sold under different brands. RUNWING 140 instrument is a RUNWING brand, and 1401 is specially provided for OEM customers.

Test standard : same as German original energy meter. Generally speaking, the testing standards of the testers made in the United State, Germany, the United Kingdom and Japan are different. So it is normal for the testing date to be different. At present, there is only one industry standard for UV products, and there is no international standard. However, a comparison can be made according to different test criteria. By comparison, the test standards of any country can provide instructional date control for the process, that is, to achieve the purpose of monitoring.


9.What are the advantages and differences if buying RUNWING 140?

A.The advantages of the product self

It can completely replace with the same performance of the instrument, the price is more favorable, that is, more cost-effective.

It has temperature compensation function : it can be used for a long time under high temperature conditions, and ensure the accuracy of its reading. Previously, I have encountered similar products whose measurement accuracy is affected by temperature problems.

The film of the instrument is more sensitive to temperature.


10.Is it possible to trade in old ones for new ones?

Yes. In order to better unify your process measurement indicators, our company can provide trade-in service. The specific needs to be based on the actual condition of your tester before, as an evaluation factor, comprehensive test after the replacement of old service, charge the difference between the two instruments.


11.If the previous instrument is of another brand, can it be compared and verified to the same test standard as RUNWING 140 or 1401?

Yes, as long as you provide relevant requirements and comparison criteria.

12.If the products of RUNWING 140/1401 are produced through other channels, can your company serve them?

Yes. Please provide the number marked on the back of instrument. Our company can trace its configuration and provide service according to the situation.


13.Is there a discount for bulk purchase?

The price varies according to the quantity of a single order. The minimum batch is 5 set/time, which can be provided from stock for a long time.


14.How can I contact you for a special information and services?

You can directly contact the division, wholeheartedly for you to provide services and related operational guidance.


15.If you want to buy energy test for UV Tester Equipment with long channels, online test (constant monitoring), energy test for profile-shaped products, etc., where can I buy the appropriate equipment?

Our company can provide this kind of UV energy tester with high requirements or special characteristics, please contact us for details.


16.As an intermediary or dealer, we hope better protect our our own customer resources. What protection can we get from if we supply supply from your company?

The following answers may help you. If not, welcome to contact us.
