Textile Ultraviolet Protection Tester
Category：Textile Functional Tester
Introduction
The G902C Textile Ultraviolet Protection Tester is designed for precise measurement of ultraviolet (UV) transmittance and the UV protection performance of textiles. It directly determines key textile UV parameters, including UVA, UVB, and UPF, providing reliable data for research, quality control, and certification purposes.
Application
The instrument is suitable for evaluating UV protection performance of various textile materials and finished products, including:
Outdoor fabrics, sun-protective clothing, and sportswear
Hats, caps, and headwear materials
Curtains, blinds, and window textiles
Protective textile products for medical or industrial use
Upholstery fabrics and interior decorative textiles
Fabrics for baby products and children’s clothing
It can simulate UV exposure conditions to assess material durability and effectiveness in blocking UVA and UVB rays.
Standards
The G902C complies with international and national standards, including:
(1) GB/T 18830-2009: Evaluation of the UV Protection Performance of Textiles (China)
(2) BS 7914-1998: British Standard for Textile UV Protection
(3) AS/NZS 4399-1996: Australian/New Zealand Standard for Sun Protective Clothing
(4) AATCC 183-1998: American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists UV Testing
(5) PREN 13758-2001: European Standard for UV Protective Textiles
