Ideal Measuring System for Mid-Sized SSL Luminaires and LED Modules
Instrument Systems, the global market leader for LED metrology, launches a new measuring system for Solid-State Lighting applications with the LGS 250 goniophotometer.
The LGS 250 was developed specifically for the analysis of angle-dependent spatial radiation properties from small to medium-sized SSL luminaires, lamps and LED modules. This closes a gap with the very large goniometers. The horizontal alignment of the Type C coordinate system facilitates a particularly convenient and compact test setup for the system. Measurements can be taken in a range of +/- 160° in the forward direction of the test specimen which may have a maximum diameter of up to 480 mm and a maximum weight of 8 kg.
Combined with a spectroradiometer from Instrument Systems, all spectral quantities such as color coordinates, color temperature, and color rendering index can be determined as a function of angle. C-plane measurements can also be carried out very quickly “on the fly” using the Optronik DSP Photometer. The LGS 250 is supplied in two versions as a goniometer with a stable base and integrated LGS Controller, and as a benchtop version with separate 19” rack for the LGS Controller.
Features:
- Type C goniophotometer with horizontal optical axis
- For samples up to 480 mm diameter and 8 kg weight
- Accurate determination of the luminous intensity distribution and luminous flux
- Angular-resolved analysis of spectral and colorimetric quantities
- Data export in IES and EULUMDAT format
