EIT 2.0 LLC UV instruments are electro-optical instruments which are similar to a camera. Unlike a camera, they need to be able to withstand the harsh conditions associated with a UV source. Proper care of the optics along with regular service will insure proper operation of the unit and accurate readings.
EIT 2.0 LLC radiometers are used in widely varying (medical clean room to wood flooring manufacturing facility) conditions. Cleaning of the instrument’s outer optics using the guidelines described below will help your EIT 2.0 LLC instrument perform as designed between service intervals. The guidelines are general and specific questions should be directed to EIT 2.0 LLC (uv@eit20.com).
Instruments that stop functioning (accidently dropped, stuck in equipment, covered or immersed in coating) need to come back to EIT 2.0 LLC for further evaluation. Please use a Service Request Form found in the Instrument Service section.
