Abstract | The ranges of conditions and environments of a dosimetric spectrum evaluator previously developed and employed in the evaluation of the UV source spectrum have been considered in this paper. The complete system of four dosimeter materials can be employed for a total UV exposure of up to approximately 10 J cm-2. The exposure times required were influenced by the UV environment. The exposure times ranged from 20 minutes to 3 hours for filtered solar erythemal UV, 5 to 30 minutes for solar erythemal UV, 30 to 53 minutes for quartz tungsten halogen lamp erythemal UV, 10 to 15 minutes for plant damage solar UV and 90 minutes for plant damage UV from fluorescent sun lamps. In these environments, employing the system in open and well-ventilated conditions minimises changes in the dose response of the system due to temperature. The results in this paper provide a guide for the range of conditions and exposure times required for different environments for future research employing the dosimetric spectrum evaluator. |
