What are the advantages of the lux meter
Small and light in weight
The first requirement for the portable illuminance meter is small size and light weight due to the broad range of applications for the illuminance meter and the frequent timing of application in various locations.
• Precision
The precision of the illuminance meter is directly related to how accurate it is. It is essential to purchase a lux meter with high accuracy at an affordable price because, of course, it is also closely linked to its price. The mistake should typically not be higher than 15%.
Color Adjustment
There are a wide variety of illumination sources. In addition to more evenly distributed ones like incandescent bulb series, some concentrate on red high-pressure lamps with longer wavelengths or blue-violet ones with shorter wavelengths, such as daylight fluorescent lamps. A similar illuminance meter's sensitivity to various wavelengths may vary marginally. Therefore, just recompense is required.
Compensation for Cosine
We are all aware that the incident angle of the light source influences the brightness of the illuminated area. The incident angle between the sensor (Sensor) and the light source will also inevitably impact the reading value of the light meter when measuring with one. Therefore, it is important to consider whether a decent illuminance meter has the capability of cosine compensation.
