3pcs MCU-GUVA-S12SD Solar UV Intensity Sensor – 240nm-370nm Wavelength, 130° Detection Angle
MCU-GUVA-S12SD UV Intensity Sensor – Precision Detection for Ultraviolet Light Applications The MCU-GUVA-S12SD is a compact, high- performance UV intensity sensor designed to detect ultraviolet light in the 240nm-370nm wavelength range. Leveraging gallium nitride-based technology, it offers reliable performance for UV monitoring applications, combining sensitivity with low power consumption. Key Features Advanced Photodiode Technology: Uses a Schottky-type photodiode with gallium nitride material, enabling photovoltaic mode operation and excellent "visible blindness" (minimal interference from visible light). High responsivity and low dark current ensure accurate UV intensity measurements even in low-light conditions. Broad Detection Capabilities: Wavelength range: 240nm-370nm, covering critical UV bands for applications like UV index monitoring and UV-A lamp performance checks. 130° large detection angle provides wide coverage, reducing the need for precise alignment. Efficient Power Management: Operates on 2.5V-5V supply voltage, compatible with most microcontrollers and low-power systems. Microampere-level working current minimizes energy consumption, ideal for battery-powered devices. Reliable Performance: Good linearity ensures consistent output across varying UV intensities. High stability for long-term operation, suitable for continuous monitoring setups. Compact Design: Small dimensions (11mm×27mm) allow integration into space-constrained projects, such as portable UV meters, weather stations, or industrial UV lamp controllers. Applications UV Index Monitoring: Environmental and personal UV exposure tracking. UV-A Lamp Monitoring: Performance checks for UV-A lamps in sterilization, curing, or horticulture systems. Package Includes 5 × MCU- GUVA-S12SD Solar UV Intensity Sensors
