The UVA Meter uses a series of LED lights to measure UVA light, which is invisible to the human
eye. It can quickly and clearly show either:
-
The condition and quality of the UV output of the existing tubes in a fly trap, showing whether
they are working at peak performance, in need of replacement or beyond useful life. This is
particularly important as not all manufacturers’ UV tubes maintain adequate performance
throughout their one year life and some shatterproof tube coatings will significantly reduce UVA
output
-
Or as an effective and valuable tool to measure and assess the amount of ambient UV light and
to locate the best position for siting of a new UV fly trap
The sturdily constructed UVA Meter is designed with the user in mind. The size of a mobile phone,
it can be carried around conveniently and also has a lanyard facility for ease of use when in
awkward situations e.g. at the top of ladders.
