3.2 UVA and UVC Probes
The meter comes with two specialized probes: one for UVA measurement and another for UVC measurement. Both probes feature a cosine correction filter for accurate light detection.

Mynd 2: Separate UVA and UVC probes. The UVA probe has a cylindrical body, while the UVC probe has a flat, circular sensor head.
4. Uppsetning
4.1 Uppsetning rafhlöðu
- Locate the battery compartment cover on the back of the main unit.
- Opnaðu hlífina.
- Insert six (6) 1.5V AA (UM-3) batteries, ensuring correct polarity as indicated inside the compartment.
- Settu hlífina yfir rafhlöðuhólfið aftur.
4.2 Kannatenging
- Identify the desired probe (UVA or UVC) for your measurement.
- Connect the probe's cable connector to the corresponding input jack on the top or side of the main unit. Ensure a secure connection.
4.3 Innsetning SD-korts
- Locate the SD card slot on the side of the main unit.
- Insert a formatted SD card (up to 16 GB) into the slot until it clicks into place.
- Til að fjarlægja, ýttu kortinu varlega inn á við þar til það flýgur út.
5. Notkunarleiðbeiningar
5.1 Kveikt/slökkt
Ýttu á POWER/ESC hnappinn til að kveikja á mælinum. Ýttu á og haltu inni hnappinum POWER/ESC hnappinn í nokkrar sekúndur til að slökkva á honum.
5.2 Measurement Mode Selection
After powering on, the meter will display the current measurement mode. To switch between UVA and UVC modes, press the dedicated UVA/UVC button (if available) or cycle through modes using the FUNC/HOLD/NEXT button as per the on-screen prompts.
5.3 Val á sviði
The YK-37UVSD offers two measurement ranges: 2 mW/cm² and 20 mW/cm². The meter typically auto-ranges, but you may be able to manually select a range using the SETJA button or a combination of buttons as described in the on-screen menu.
5.4 Gagnahaldsaðgerð
Ýttu á HOLD hnappur (oft ásamt FUNC/NEXT) to freeze the current reading on the display. Press it again to release the hold function.
5.5 Núllstilling
For accurate measurements, especially in low light conditions, a zero adjustment may be necessary. With the probe covered or in a dark environment, press the NÚLL button to calibrate the meter to zero.
5.6 Data Logging (SD Card)
To initiate real-time data logging to the SD card:
- Gakktu úr skugga um að SD-kort sé ísett.
- Ýttu á SKOÐARMAÐUR button. The display will indicate that logging has started.
- Til að hætta skráningu, ýttu á SKOÐARMAÐUR hnappinn aftur.
- Data is saved in a format compatible with spreadsheet software for easy analysis.
5.7 Type K Temperature Measurement
The YK-37UVSD also supports Type K thermocouple temperature measurements. Connect a Type K thermocouple probe (sold separately) to the designated input. Use the FUNC/NEXT button to switch to temperature measurement mode.
6. Viðhald
6.1 Þrif
Wipe the device and probes with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp Hægt er að nota klút með mildu þvottaefni og gæta þess að vökvi komist ekki inn í tækið. Notið ekki slípiefni eða leysiefni.
6.2 Skipt um rafhlöðu
When the low battery indicator appears on the display, replace all six AA batteries promptly to ensure continued accurate operation. Refer to section 4.1 for battery installation instructions.
6.3 Geymsla
Store the meter and probes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
7. Bilanagreining
- No Display / Device Not Turning On: Check battery installation and ensure batteries are fresh. If using an AC adapter, verify the connection and power source.
- Ónákvæmar lestur: Ensure probes are clean and properly connected. Perform a zero adjustment. Verify that the correct measurement mode (UVA/UVC) is selected.
- SD-kortsvilla: Ensure the SD card is properly inserted and formatted. Try a different SD card if the issue persists.
- Data Logging Not Working: Check if the SD card has sufficient free space. Ensure the logging function is activated correctly.
