With the new Category III “flexible scope accreditation” the Instrument Systems test laboratories can apply new testing and examination methods within the accredited range in the existing portfolio and refer to these as accredited procedures. The accreditation of test laboratories is enormously important for photometric technology customers. They can be certain that their measuring instruments deliver reliable and traceable results. Following certification of the measuring equipment often used in production, the final products achieve a higher quality and generate greater confidence among customers.

The test laboratories of Instrument Systems have also been accredited to ISO 11664 for colorimetric quantities. This international standard permits the comparison of chromaticity values at different times and at different places. For determining the latter, Instrument Systems offers measurement solutions with a uniquely high level of accuracy. The traceable measurement uncertainties are only ±0.0015 on the standard chromaticity coordinates of white LEDs and are reliably estimated using state-of-the-art validated Monte Carlo calculations. For example, the high-end spectrometer CAS 140D is in combination with the ISP 2000 integrating sphere ideal for the highly accurate measurement of correlated color temperature CCT and the color rendering index CRI.
