Triband UV Photodetector TOCON_ABC10 (UVA+UVB+UVC)
High-Precision Triband UV Photodetector for UVA, UVB, and UVC Monitoring in Industrial and Scientific Applications
The TOCON_ABC10 from SGLUX GmbH is a triband UV photodetector engineered to measure UVA, UVB, and UVC radiation simultaneously with exceptional precision and stability. Designed for wide-spectrum UV monitoring, this sensor integrates a solar-blind silicon carbide (SiC) photodiode and a low-noise transimpedance amplifier, providing a linear 0–5 V DC output proportional to total UV irradiance.
It features a broad spectral response from 220 to 400 nm, covering the full ultraviolet range critical for disinfection, curing, environmental analysis, and photobiological research. The robust anodised aluminium housing and UV-grade quartz window ensure durability and consistent performance under intense UV exposure and harsh industrial conditions.
Factory-calibrated and traceable to NIST/PTB standards, the TOCON_ABC10 delivers reliable, reproducible readings ideal for UVGI validation, solar simulation, and comprehensive UV radiation measurement across multiple applications.
Understanding Triband UV Photodetector TOCON_ABC10 (UVA+UVB+UVC)
The TOCON_ABC10 combines UVA, UVB, and UVC detection capabilities into one sensor, making it a versatile instrument for broadband ultraviolet measurement. It employs a solar-blind SiC photodiode with an integrated transimpedance amplifier, outputting a 0–5 V DC signal that’s directly proportional to UV intensity.
This compact, rugged module simplifies integration with SGLUX SENSOR MONITOR 5.0, VOLTCON, or SGCD4 systems for continuous monitoring and control.
Its broad spectral response (220–400 nm), excellent linearity, and minimal drift make it ideal for industrial sterilisation, environmental UV assessment, and scientific research where total UV flux must be measured with precision.
