CSS-45-UV
Compact and cost effective spectral UV detector for UV LED lighting
- spectral UV LED measurements (200 nm to 440 nm) in detector design
- Usable as detector head or with CSS-D
- Directly mountable to integrating spheres (diameter 45 mm)
- Plug & Play connection via USB including software
Some UV LED measurement applications require the UV sensor to be installed within a measurement system or operated remotely. Industrial applications often require integration with PLC systems. Continuous and remote operation requires light measurement sensors to be robust. For such tasks, Gigahertz-Optik offers the compact spectral UV sensor CSS-45-UV. It is a precise spectroradiometer covering the wavelength range 200 nm to 440 nm.
UV Spectroradiometer Sensor Head for UV LEDs and other UV sources
- Individual wavelength and linearity correction guarantee precise measurements of UV LEDs irrespective of intensity and spectral distribution.
- Mathematical bandwidth correction according to CIE 214 for accurate colorimetric measurements.
- Another unique feature of the CSS-45-UV is its electromechanical shutter which enables the remote-controlled dark adjustment of the sensor. This is essential for temperature-independent and long-term operation of array spectrometers.
- Diffuser with a precise cosine adjustment (f2 ≤ 1.5 %) for measuring the irradiance of extended UV sources.
Robust and compact
The compact metal housing features an M6 threaded hole and a V-groove around the device for universal attachment of the CSS-45-UV. The dimensions are given in the technical drawing available for download. The housing with its splash-proof electrical connectors meets the requirements of protection class IP62. For IP65 rated protection, a sensor variant with quartz dome is required.
Interfaces and Software
The sensor offers both an RS-485 and a USB interface for remote operation. The addressable RS-485 interface allows very long supply lines. Multiple CSS-45-UV sensors can be operated together under RS-485 control as well as in USB remote operation. In addition to the provided end-user software, a software development kit (SDK) is optionally available for simplified integration of the sensor into user written software.

Numerous metrics for a wide field of measurement applications
The CSS-45-UV includes an integrated processor. It calculates a comprehensive set of radiometric and spectroradiometric quantities out of the measured spectral measurement data.
Accessories
The light sensor CSS-45-UV can be combined with the control unit CSS-D in order to be used as a handheld light meter.
Traceable factory calibration
An essential quality feature of light measuring instruments is their precise and traceable calibration. The calibration laboratory of Gigahertz-Optik GmbH guarantees the high quality and traceability of their factory calibrations. Calibration of the CSS-45-UV is confirmed by a factory calibration certificate.
