  2. Sun protective clothing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_protective_clothing

    A relatively new rating designation for sun protective textiles and clothing is UPF (ultraviolet protection factor), which represents the ratio of sunburn-causing UV measured without and with the protection of the fabric. For example, a fabric rated UPF 30 means that, if 30 units of UV fall on the fabric, only 1 unit will pass through to the skin.

  3. UV filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_filter

    Also, quality UV filters offer some protection against lens contamination while minimizing the inherent additional distortion. In photography, the term "UV filter" can also be misused as a filter that passes UV light while blocking other wavelengths in the light spectrum, in the same way, the term " IR filter " is used for filtering the entire ...

  4. Ultraviolet index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet_index

    The UV index is a number linearly related to the intensity of sunburn-producing UV radiation at a given point on the Earth's surface. It cannot be simply related to the irradiance (measured in W / m 2 ) because the UV of greatest concern occupies a spectrum of wavelengths from 295 to 325 nm, and shorter wavelengths have already been absorbed a ...

  7. Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet_germicidal...

    Likewise, the irradiance depends on the brightness (radiant intensity, W/sr) of the UV source, the distance between the UV source and the microbe, the attenuation of filters (e.g. fouled glass) in the light path, the attenuation of the medium (e.g. microbes in turbid water), the presence of particles or objects that can shield the microbes from ...
