Functioning and Circuitry What is Luminance? The instrument essentially comprises the sensor This is the amount of light as registered by the containing the silicon photocell and the correction eye. Luminance thus expresses the brightness of filters and the instrument itself. In an integrated a surface.
Maintenance Calibration Service The instruments are calibrated at the light of a scientific standard lamp having a colour temperature of 2856 K, fully in accordance with the PTB standard. Depending on how the instrument is being used we recommend a recalibration interval between 12 and 18 months.
Description of MAVO-SPOT The MAVO-SPOT is a very precise measuring instrument attached to the basic instrument MAVO-MONITOR with a measuring angle of 1°. This combined equipment set permits measuring the luminance at distances from 1 m to ∞ while including the existing ambient light.
