Special UV-Index Sensor ERYCA

Features

 The UVI Sensor ERYCA is a further development of our product EryF. With an additional filter the accordance with the erythema action curve of the human skin has been further improved. The ERYCA is designed for use as an erythema sensor according to ISO 17166 CIE S 007/E (2000) - DIN 5050. It is optimally suited to feature in high quality instruments for exact measurements of the UV Index.
