UV-A tester for Analysing UV-A lamps with your mobile

The new Bluetooth UV-A tester has been developed to check status of UV-A lamps out in the field. It can be used by service technician, sales persons, but also by clients and auditor inspectors.

This tool was designed to offer a price competitive, easy to use tool, which will allow you to check status on the efficiency of UV-A lamps. As we all know: there is still little or no awareness on the fact that UV-A light diminishes over time and as a result lamps are not replaced or replaced too late.

This is a compact and easy to use UV sensor, used to measure UV-A output from UV lamps, which will replace the previous model

How to use the bluetooth UV-A tester?

The bluetooth UV tester measures and analyses the UV-A light from your UV-A lamps inside your flytrap/insect-trap. It connects to every Smartphone via Bluetooth 4.0 or higher..

This enables you to ensure your insect-traps are working efficiently. You can also compare and see for yourself how much more efficient the ASTRON or SIGNIFY/PHILIPS UV-A lamps are!

In fact, unless you are using ASTRON or PHILIPS bulbs already, you might be surprised at how little UV-A light is coming off many other lamps!
The Alcochem UV-A tester simply works with your smartphone

Connect the bluetooth UV-A tester to your Smartphone with the Alcochem app (available in the app stores). The UV-A tester is powered by a cell battery with a lifespan approx. 1 year.

To provide the data you need to ensure your lamps are working to keep your premises free of flying insects.


Suitable for: UV-A tubes. Fluorescent and LED versions.
