  • Title: UV radiation emitted by selected sources at work stands.
    Author: Kozłowski C.
    Journal: Int J Occup Med Environ Health; 2001; 14(3):287-92. PubMed ID: 11764858.
    Abstract:
    The paper presents the results of UV effective irradiance measurements at work stands for sources such as: welding arcs, gas blowpipes, exposure processes, printing machines and insecticide lamps. The irradiance measurements were performed using broad-band instruments with detector heads corrected to the Polish action spectra (erythematous and conjunctivitis). The obtained values of effective irradiance for the above sources ranged from 0.2 to 8,000 mW/m2. Safe exposure time corresponding to irradiance was calculated for the Polish threshold limit values. For welding processes the spectra of selected welding arcs are presented additionally. These spectra were measured using a fiber-optic spectrometer.
