Outdoor Touch Screen Anti-UV Design
AMT PCAP Touch Solutions Excellent Anti-UV Performance up to 1,000 hours
27 Oct, 2021Many outdoor applications adopt projected capacitive (PCAP) touch technology. However, these applications are usually constantly under sunlight. Extended exposure to ultraviolet (UV) damages the ITO film of the touch panel, causing the touch panel to have different degrees of yellowing, hazing, bubbling, or cracking. These deteriorations may cause appearance defects or even reduce the light transmittance of the touch panel. If there are bubbles, they would even affect the operation. AMT has launched a projected capacitive touch panel with superb anti-UV performance to provide an outstanding touch solution for outdoor settings!
Extended Protection
The wavelength of UV light (100 to 400nm) falls outside the range of visible light. The cover lens of a PCAP touch panel can generally block UV wavelengths less than 300nm, which includes UVB and UVC.
The AMT anti-UV design PCAP touch panel meets ASTM G154 Cycle 1 for 1,000 hours test standard and can effectively block the damage caused by UV radiation. However, some clients’ applications need to withstand full spectrum light exposure, so AMT uses the weathering tester to simulate further the full spectrum of sunlight (295-800nm). These testers can induce outdoor damage ranging from months to years in a short time. The test results demonstrate that the AMT anti-UV design touch panel can pass the MIL-STD-810H Pro 1 for 1,000 hours test standard, which shows our product is an excellent choice for your outdoor applications!
UV Resistance Plus Wide Temperature Design
One of our customers manufactures excavators. Excavators are susceptible to UV radiation because they are operated and parked under the sun for an extended time. To facilitate the customer's design, AMT recommended the PCAP touch panels with an anti-UV design. Additionally, our wide temperature design has outstanding performance in areas with drastic temperature change. The plan passed the full-spectrum test specifications required by the customer. Impressed by AMT's anti-UV experience and technology on outdoor applications, the customer placed an order with us!
