Quartz Inner Filter for Atlas Ci5000 Weather-Ometer

is a replacement inner filter for the Atlas Ci5000 Weather-Ometer. Paired with a Type S borosilicate outer filter, it produces an Extended UV spectrum for specified accelerated weathering and automotive material tests. Specialized CIRA-coated and auxiliary-filter configurations may also support certain automotive interior procedures. It is not intended for general daylight simulation.

Applications

Extended UV Weathering

When paired with a Type S borosilicate outer filter, the quartz inner filter supports Extended UV exposure for methods requiring more short-wave ultraviolet radiation than natural sunlight.

Automotive Interior and Exterior Materials

The Quartz/Type S borosilicate configuration is used in specified automotive exposure programs, including applications associated with SAE J2412 and SAE J2527. The complete filter arrangement, instrument settings, and current method revision must be verified before testing.

Specialized Automotive Interior Exposure

Selected procedures may use the quartz inner filter with a CIRA-coated outer filter and auxiliary lantern glass. Confirm every required filter and lantern component before ordering.

Research, Quality Control, and Product Validation

The quartz inner filter supports material-development, comparative durability, production quality-control, and product-qualification programs when the specified method requires an Extended UV or specialized automotive spectrum.

Features

• Produces an Extended UV spectrum when paired with the compatible Type S borosilicate outer filter.
• Supports accelerated exposure programs requiring more short-wave UV than natural sunlight.
• Provides configuration flexibility for SAE and specialized automotive material-testing procedures.
• Works with selected CIRA-coated outer filters to support lower specimen-temperature or method-specific exposure conditions.

Specifications

Published Irradiance Ranges

The following values apply to complete Atlas Ci5000 lamp and filter configurations using the quartz inner filter. They describe the combined instrument, lamp, inner filter, outer filter, and any auxiliary filter rather than the quartz inner filter by itself.

Published values may vary with lamp age, instrument condition, laboratory environment, facility infrastructure, and the exact auxiliary-filter assembly. Confirm the required filter combination and current test method before selecting operating conditions.

FAQs

Which instrument is compatible with the HTL quartz inner filter?

The quartz inner filter is designed for the Atlas Ci5000 Weather-Ometer. Confirm the instrument model and existing filter part number before ordering.

Can the quartz inner filter be used for SAE automotive testing?

Yes, when installed as part of the complete configuration required by the applicable method. This quartz filter is identified for SAE testing, including applications associated with SAE J2412 and SAE J2527.

How often should the Ci5000 quartz inner filter be replaced?

This filter should be replaced after 400 operating hours.

What is the difference between quartz, Type S borosilicate, and Right Light inner filters?

The quartz inner filter is used for Extended UV exposure. The Type S borosilicate inner filter supports traditional daylight or window-glass conditions, while the Right Light inner filter supports a closer match to natural solar radiation.
