UV-2000S Ultraviolet
Transmittance Analyzer
One touch sample analysis
Results in less than five seconds

Advanced
Labsphere’s UV-2000S incorporates the latest
component and software technology to achieve
accurate in-vitro SPF/UVA-Protection Factor analysis of
sun care products developed to receive the “very high”
sun protection label. Driven by rapidly evolving industry
requirements to simplify product labeling and new
in-vitro methods to validate product UVA Protection,
the UV-2000S is designed to comply with recently
approved in-vitro methods, such as COLIPA UVA-PF,
ISO 24443, Boots Star Rating and the US FDA, as well
as several pending global standards/methods.

Easy to operate
A built-in report function generates essential information at
the click of a button. Reports include necessary information
such as date, time, operator name, sample identification, and
test parameters. Reports are conveniently viewed on your PC,
printed, or exported as text to data processing software for
further review and analysis.

original holographic diffraction gratings, not replicated
gratings, peaked for higher efficiency across the wavelength
range, and longer pixel arrays for better pixel wavelength
resolution.

Illumination is filtered at the integrating sphere to limit total


exposure at the sample and to improve stray light performance.
A higher flash rate reduces exposure time, minimizing dark
current and maximizing dynamic range.

Use of solarization resistant fibers maintains high system


throughput over time. Longer fibers filter high order modes
to provide cleaner grating illumination improving stray light
performance.
