"UV Fading" is an English term that we have just added to our PT lexicon(1).

This idea came to our minds when we saw, on a Website, a French translation of this term by "affadissement des indications", which could be translated by "whitening indications."

A paper (1) on our Website has pointed out some problems linked to calibration/verification.

The first one is about the words themselves: calibration and verification have difficult-to-grasp differences in meaning, in English as well as in French. We recommend you read again this paper.

Another point we underlined is the "quality" of successive internal "calibrations" made by users themselves. This paper gives an example based on three UV-A radiometers from the same company.
