UV Irradiance is the radiant power, within a stated wavelength range, arriving at a surface per. unit area, usually expressed in watts or milliwatts per square centimeter. Irradiance varies with lamp. output power, efficiency and focus of its reflector system, and distance to the surface.
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the part of sunlight which causes sunburn, skin damage and skin cancer. Ultraviolet radiation can be broken down into three bands: UVA, UVB, and UVC. The amount of UV rays reaching the Earthâs surface varies throughout the day. The danger period is between 10am and 3pm. These are the hours when skin damage occurs the fastest. On a cloud-free day, we can feel maximum ultraviolet rays. However, ultraviolet levels are not related to the air temperature. There can be high levels of ultraviolet rays on cool days and UV rays still reach the Earthâs surface when there is cloud cover.
