UV Included and excluded - DTP70

The X-Rite DTP70 contains an Ultra Violet (UV) filter that can be moved into the optical path of the instrument. When this is done the filter blocks (excludes) UV energy from the measurement.

UV excluded therefore means the filter is being used.

UV included means that the filter is not being used.

It is often desirable to exclude the UV potion of the spectrum when measuring profiling targets printed on substrates containing optical brighteners. The DTP70 is shipped from X-Rite with the filter in the included position. See related support articles on the left to learn how to move the filter into or out of the optical path.
