Standard erythemal doses per hour to UV index
Type a value in SED/h to get it in UVI instantly.
That's 1.27× as strong as a European summer day, while a Mediterranean summer noon is 1.01× stronger. That is very high: avoid the midday sun.
Convert the other way: UVI to SED/h
What it means
How strong is that sun?
Information only. Burn times are for unprotected skin in full sun and vary a lot between people; sunscreen, shade and reflection from snow or water change them.
The math
How to convert SED/h to UVI
To convert standard erythemal doses per hour to UV index, multiply by 1.11111.
Example: 8 SED/h × 1.11111 = 8.88889 UVI.
In the other direction, 1 UVI = 0.9 SED/h.
Burn times below are for Type II: fair, usually burns. Change it above and they update.
