Good Sensitivity

The sensor is quite sensitive to sunlight changes. It needs a bit of calibration in the code to get precise readings, but overall a good module for the price.

5 FAQ

Q: Is the module waterproof for outdoor use?

A: No, the PCB is not waterproof. If using outdoors, please house it in a waterproof enclosure with a UV-transparent window.

Q: What is the maximum voltage this can handle?

A: We recommend operating between 3.3V and 5V. Exceeding 5V may damage the sensor component on the module.

Q: Is this module compatible with Raspberry Pi?

A: Yes, but since Raspberry Pi GPIOs are digital, you will need an external ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) like the MCP3008 to read the analog output.

Q: Can this detect UV from welding arcs?

A: The sensor can detect UV radiation from various sources including welding. However, please ensure proper safety measures when working with welding equipment.

Q: Does this come with header pins soldered?

A: Yes, the 3-pin header is typically pre-soldered for immediate use, but please check the product images for the specific batch.
