What are the advantages and scope of application of the illuminance meter
What are the advantages of lux meters?
● Compact Size, Light Weight
The opportunity to use the illuminance meter is very wide, and the timing of application is often in different places, so the first prerequisite for the portable illuminance meter is small size and light weight.
● Accuracy
Whether the illuminance meter is good or bad has an absolute relationship with its accuracy. Of course, it is also closely related to its price, so it is necessary to buy a lux meter with high accuracy at a reasonable price. Generally, the error should not exceed ±15%.
● Color Compensation
The types of light sources are all-encompassing. Some focus on red high-pressure lamps with longer wavelengths, or blue-violet ones with shorter wavelengths such as Daylight fluorescent lamps; there are also more evenly distributed ones such as incandescent bulb series. The sensitivity of the same illuminance meter to different wavelengths may be slightly different. Therefore, appropriate compensation is necessary.
● Cosine Compensation
We all know that the brightness of the illuminated surface is related to the incident angle of the light source. In the same way, when measuring with a light meter, the incident angle between the sensor (Sensor) and the light source will naturally affect the reading value of the light meter. Therefore, whether a good illuminance meter has the function of cosine compensation cannot be ignored.
Introduction to the scope of use of the illuminance meter
1. General public place application
In order to ensure that people can live under suitable light, our country has formulated health standards for indoor (including public places) illuminance, and uses illuminometers to measure the illuminance of various places. In general public places, shopping malls (stores), libraries, museums, art galleries, and exhibition halls, the sanitation standard for countertop illuminance is ≥100Lx. It is most appropriate to use the illuminance meter DT-1300 for illuminance control. DT-1300 illuminance meter has a pocket-sized portable design, which can be carried around, which is convenient for you to use in different places. The 31/2-digit LCD screen is convenient for quick and accurate readings.
2. Lighting production industry, photography industry, stage lighting layout, etc.
The illuminance meter has been successfully applied to many projects, such as lighting production industry, photography industry, stage lighting layout, etc. Different models of illuminance meters can meet different measurement requirements. The 8809 series illuminance meters also have a USB interface, which can input data into the computer for further measurement. Data analysis, real-time monitoring
3. Factory production line application
In the factory, the illumination requirements on the production line are relatively strict, continuous work will cause visual fatigue, and work efficiency will be greatly reduced. Usually, the illumination requirement is ≥1000Lx. For places with relatively high illumination requirements, a large-range illuminance meter can be selected. The illuminance meter DT- 8808, super large range, can deal with strong light illuminance measurement. DT-8808 lux meter is a hand-held accurate digital lux meter for professional photometric measurement, which meets the requirements of CIE spectral response. Automatic range setting, fast response, measurement speed 1.5 times/second, super large range 400000LUX, fast and accurate measurement of illuminance readings, this illuminance meter is cost-effective and is your first choice for measurement.
4. The application of illuminance meters is very extensive, including the applications in our daily life, such as factories, warehouses, schools, offices, homes, street lamp construction, laboratories and so on.
