With experience of almost eight decades in testing lamps and luminaires, SGS Fimko offers a wide range of photometric testing services, and has now added a goniophotometer for photometric measurements

With an experience of almost eight decades in testing lamps and luminaires, SGS Fimko offers a wide range of photometric testing services SGS Fimko can now perform photometric measurements thanks to its new near-field goniophotometer which has been operative since August 2006

This new device can measure variables such as: luminous intensity distributions, luminance distributions, luminous flux (lm = lumen), utilisation coefficient, service illuminance (lx = lux), optical power (W = Watt), colour rendering power index (Ra index), colour temperature (K= Kelvin), chromaticity coordinates (x and y) ,spectrum distribution wave of visual light SGS Fimko carries out measurements of these variables on normal use and safety luminaires, incandescent, fluorescent and discharge lamps, control gears of lighting fittings and flat screens.

Luminance test results can be used as a marketing tool.

The new near-field goniophotometer is able to measure the correct luminous intensity distributions at a close distance from the measuring object without moving the measured object and with the luminance distribution data shown as a "digital photo".

Photometric measurements can be carried out within a week e.g as follows: in combination with safety, EMC and ROHS testing as well as certification (FI, CB, CB-EMC; GS, ENEC, NRTL) as benchmarking, product development and quality control tests.

Based on our tests you can get an impartial Statement of Test Result as a marketing tool which offers you a competitive edge on the market. Request free introductory details about products from SGS ...
