Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): Essential for fluorescent penetrant inspection (FPI) and magnetic particle inspection (MPI) in aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing
Quality Control: Used to verify the presence and uniformity of coatings, adhesives, and sealants, as well as to detect contamination on surfaces and components.
Cleanliness Verification: Effective in identifying residues and contaminants in cleanroom environments, ensuring compliance with stringent cleanliness standards.
Counterfeit Detection: Assists in verifying the authenticity of documents, currency, and products by revealing security features that fluoresce under UV light.
Start by identifying what you need the inspection system for:
NDT (Non-Destructive Testing) – such as magnetic particle inspection (MPI) or fluorescent penetrant inspection (FPI)
Cleanliness verification – in cleanrooms, labs, or electronics
Coating/adhesive inspection – in manufacturing or assembly lines
Counterfeit detection – for security features in documents or packaging
Different applications require different intensity levels, beam sizes, and certifications.
365 nm (UV-A) is the most commonly used wavelength for inspections.
Make sure the lamp emits minimal visible light to avoid interference with fluorescent materials.
High-intensity output (e.g., >1,200 μW/cm² at 15 inches) allows for faster, more effective inspections.
Look for systems with a wide, uniform beam if you’re inspecting large surfaces.
For detailed, small-area inspections, a focused beam is more suitable.
Ensure the system complies with industry standards such as:
ASTM E3022
ISO 3059
Rolls-Royce RRES 90061 (if applicable in aerospace)
These ensure consistent performance and compatibility with regulated environments.
Handheld: Lightweight, battery-powered for field or mobile inspections.
Stationary/bench-top: Higher power, better for lab or production environments.
Some systems include both UV and white light LEDs, allowing easy switching during inspection and documentation.
Look for IP-rated enclosures (e.g., IP65) for use in dusty, wet, or rugged environments.
Choose impact-resistant materials if working in industrial or field settings.
