Wedeco UV Systems Light Box

• Used for material testing where controlled UV exposure is required to simulate aging or degradation.
• Applied in quality control processes for inspecting coatings, plastics, and other materials for defects or changes.
• Utilised in laboratory environments for research and development involving photochemistry or material science.
• Suitable for sterilisation validation in certain pharmaceutical or medical device manufacturing contexts.
• Employed in environmental testing to assess the impact of UV radiation on various samples.

Typical UV wavelength range

Units of this type commonly offer broad-spectrum UV or specific UVA/UVB/UVC ranges, depending on the lamps installed.

Exposure area

The internal dimensions of the light box vary, typically accommodating samples ranging from small components to medium-sized panels.

UV intensity control

Many systems feature adjustable UV intensity settings to cater to different testing protocols.

Exposure timer

Commonly includes a programmable timer for precise control over exposure durations.

Power supply

Typically operates on standard industrial single-phase or three-phase electrical supplies, commonly 230V or 400V, 50Hz in the UK.

Temperature control

Some advanced units may offer temperature control within the exposure chamber to simulate specific environmental conditions.

Safety features

Expected to include interlocks to prevent UV exposure when the door is open, and protective shielding.
