Triband UV Photodetector TOCON_ABC9 (UVA+UVB+UVC)
High-Accuracy Triband UV Sensor for UVA, UVB, and UVC Radiation Monitoring in Industrial and Research Applications
The TOCON_ABC9 from SGLUX GmbH is a triband ultraviolet (UV) photodetector designed for precision monitoring of UVA, UVB, and UVC radiation across the full ultraviolet spectrum (220–400 nm). Featuring a solar-blind silicon carbide (SiC) photodiode and an integrated low-noise transimpedance amplifier, it outputs a linear 0–5 V DC signal proportional to total UV irradiance.
Engineered for scientific research, industrial disinfection control, and UV process monitoring, the TOCON_ABC9 offers fast response, excellent linearity, and minimal signal drift, even during continuous high-intensity UV exposure.
Encased in anodised aluminium housing with a UV-grade quartz optical window, it delivers outstanding durability and long-term stability.
Each TOCON_ABC9 unit is factory-calibrated and traceable to NIST/PTB standards, ensuring precise, reproducible measurements for UVGI validation, solar simulation, curing process optimisation, and broadband UV metrology applications.
Understanding Triband UV Photodetector TOCON_ABC9 (UVA+UVB+UVC)
The TOCON_ABC9 is a broadband UV photodetector designed to measure UVA (315–400 nm), UVB (280–315 nm), and UVC (220–280 nm) radiation simultaneously. Its solar-blind SiC photodiode ensures immunity to visible and infrared light, guaranteeing accurate UV readings in all lighting environments.
The integrated amplifier provides a direct 0–5 V DC output, making it compatible with SGLUX SENSOR MONITOR 5.0, VOLTCON, and SGCD4 systems for real-time data acquisition and control.
With its fast response time (<1 s) and traceable calibration, the TOCON_ABC9 is ideal for industrial disinfection monitoring, environmental UV measurement, and scientific process validation.
