Technical Parameters

Our UV aging tester has the same performance as the QUV Accelerated weathering tester and is a perfect alternative to the QUV Accelerated weathering tester. We use the same power supply and lamps, the same spectral range, and the parameters and performance are exactly the same as the QUV Accelerated weathering tester.

Our UV weathering tester is also a perfect replacement for the Atlas UVTest® Fluorescent / UV Instrument and meets all the testing standards of that model.
