UV sensor for monitoring light and UV for staff to avoid contributions to Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)

According to recent research it has been established that too little natural light may have a negative effect on a body's natural rhythm, reducing alertness and contributing to depressive conditions including seasonal affective disorder (SAD).

The use and movement of artefacts and objects within a building requires an average illumination of 50 LUX with the absolute minimum of 20 LUX. Any instances of people working in lower levels will generate a situation of which health and safety managers will become liable.

In order to reduce and eliminate these issues the first step would be to use a UVsensor to monitor the light levels within a building.

Our ML4000LUX/UV series data loggers and radio transmitters can record both light and/or UV levels within an area, helping Health and Safety Managers to ensure the correct levels of light are being monitored and maintained. Measurements taken include the amount of visible light (Lux) the proportion of UV present (µW/lumen) and the UV power (mW/M2).

The use of wireless sensors over data loggers provide users with immediate alarm notification of unacceptable conditions allowing preventative action to be taken.
