Abstract: The invention relates to a radiation sensor device comprising a housing and a plurality of radiation sensor modules secured to the housing. Each radiation sensor module comprises a radiation sensor arranged to detect radiation incident on the radiation source module. Preferably, each radiation sensor module contains an entire so-called optical train to allow for calibration of the detector (e.g., photodiodes, photoresistors and the like) without disassembling all the components of the module.

Abstract: The invention relates to a radiation sensor device comprising a housing, a radiation sensor secured with respect to a first portion of the housing and a heat pipe in thermal communication with the first portion of the housing, the heat pipe being configured to transfer heat from portion of the house to a second portion of the housing remote from the first portion of the housing. The heat pipe may be used advantageously to transport or transfer heat away from the sensor components of the device to an area remote therefrom. The heat pipe can be used to transfer heat at a rate that is thousands of times higher than copper. The radiation sensor device may be used in an ultraviolet radiation fluid treatment system such as an ultraviolet radiation water disinfection system.

Abstract: There is described an optical radiation sensor device for detecting radiation in a radiation field. The device comprises a sensor element capable of detecting and responding to incident radiation from the radiation field and a radiation window interposed between the sensor element and the radiation field. The radiation window comprises a non-circular (preferably square) shaped radiation transparent opening. The optical radiation sensor device can be used in a so-called dynamic manner while mitigating or obviating the detection errors resulting from the use of a circular-shaped attenuating aperture and/or angular (even minor) misalignment of the sensor device with respect to the array of radiation sources when multiple such circular-shaped attenuating apertures are used.
