Traditional UV viewing cabinet
Traditional UV viewing cabinets let in ambient light and have less even UV coverage, making reading weak positive results more difficult and often leading to additional incubation time.
UV Viewer PLUS
The design of the UV Viewer PLUS, especially the angled viewing port and wrap-around curtain, blocks more ambient light for an easier and quicker objective read.
Maximum UV coverage with four strips of LED lights.
