Ultraviolet index The UV Index is a linear scale, with higher values representing a greater risk of sunburn (which is correlated with other health risks) due to UV exposure. An index of 0 corresponds to zero UV radiation, as is essentially the case at night.

Maps and Radar Maps and Radar. This colored contour map shows the forecasted ultraviolet index (UV index) for noon at local time. The sun's ultraviolet rays can cause sunburn and other harmful damage to the body, and the UV index is proportional to the strength of the sun's ultraviolet rays. The key below the image shows the corresponding UV index and minutes to skin damage at noon for each color. Updated: 1:00 AM GMT on January 25, 2017.

Some of the Most Toxic Sunscreens and Safer Options These wavelengths are classified as UVA, UVB, or UVC, with UVA the longest of the three at 320-400 nanometers (nm, or billionths of a meter). UVA is further divided into two wave ranges, UVA I, which measures 340-400 nanometers (nm, or billionths of a meter), and UVA II which extends from 320-340 nanometers.

Disinfection by Ultraviolet Light The UV dose is the product of UV intensity (expressed as energy per unit surface area) and residence time. Therefore: DOSE = I x T. This is commonly expressed as 1mJ/cm2=1000 micro Watt second/cm2. The minimum dose expressed by Willand gives the user the guaranteed assurance of success.

UV Light UV (Ultraviolet) Light refers to the region of the electromagnetic spectrum between visible light and X-rays, with a wavelength falling between 400 and 10 nanometers. This electromagnetic radiation is not visible to the human eye, because it has a shorter wavelength and higher frequency than the light our brain perceives as images.

about UV LIGHT Over 100 years ago, scientists discovered that if you exposed pathogens to UV light, their reproduction was limited. The UV light used, resided in the UVC range of the light spectrum. Specifically, they discovered that light in the 254 nanometer (nm) range was the most effective. When water pathogens are exposed to UV light, their cells become damaged and this damage inhibits reproduction.

- The shorter the wavelength, the more energetic the radiation, and the greater the potential for harm. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation that reaches the Earths surface is in wavelengths between 290 and 400 nm (nanometers, or billionths of a meter).This is shorter than wavelengths of visible light, which are 400 to 700 nm.UV-B includes light with wavelengths down to 280 nm, but little to no radiation below 290 nm reaches the Earth’s surface). UV-B causes damage at the molecular level to the fundamental building block of life deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).

Ultraviolet (UV) Radiation Time of Day. UV is most intense at noon when the sun is at its highest point in the sky, and UV rays have the least distance to travel through the atmosphere. Especially in the hot summer months, it is a good idea to remain indoors during the peak sun hours of 10am and 4pm.

UV Index What is the UV Index? The UV Index is a tool you can use to protect yourself from UV radiation. It tells you the time during the day that you need to be SunSmart. Sun protection times are issued by the Bureau of Meteorology when the UV Index is forecast to reach 3 or above. At that level, it can damage your skin and lead to skin cancer. How do I get the UV Index

How to Measure UVA Protection Afforded by Sunscreen Products The above method has been modified to yield a new measure of the 'breadth' of UVA protection using a test method called 'critical wavelength'.t is expected that these limits can differ depending on the conditions used. A modified critical wavelength method including a pre-irradiation step to take into account the photochemical behavior of the sunscreen products has been proposed.

Ultraviolet Disinfection FlowrateAll UV units have a maximum flowrate capacity and some have a minimum flowrate as well. Ifthe flow is too high, water will pass through without enough UV exposure. If the flow is too low,heat may build up which can damage the UV lamp.
