   We have been using UV100 for almost everything in the near UV.   
   Adding a thin BK37 glass in front sometimes.   
   And additionally there was a bright blue-greenish glass   
    which name I forgot.   
   The sensor is linear over 7 decades.

   Datasheet is only accessible if you start from the root link   
   and enter UV35 or UV100 etc.
