Gossen Mavolux 5032C Light Meter

Features in Detail

Architects and expert lighting system engineers greatly depend on the precise measurement of light. Thus the Mavolux 5032C with light receptor will be the ideal measuring instrument.

Gossen Mavolux 5032C Light Meter Key Features

Gossen Mavolux 5032C
Highly Accurate Light Meter
The Mavolux 5032C is a handy, easy to use, highly accurate light meter capable of measuring illumination in either footcandles or lux. Candelas/m2 and footlamberts can also be measured with the optional optical luminance attachment.
Color Correction
The Mavolux 5032C is equipped with color correction, so that its spectral response is matched to that of the human eye,V(λ), in accordance with DIN 5032, part 7, class C.
Integrated Cosine Correction
Integrated cosine correction is included in order to ensure that oblique incident light is also evaluated correctly.

Gossen Mavolux 5032C Light Meter
Digital Luxmeters and Luminance meters classified according to DIN 5032-7 and CIE 69.
Wide range of applications: for light technicians, for the control of light sources, street lights, lighting of work places, public buildings, sports facilties;for quality control and quality assurance in the manufacture of lamps and light sources; for light designers and architects; for measurements in agriculture and horticulture. Both MAVALUX types allow measuring very high light intensities (brightest daylight, head lights) without any additional accessories. Expecially the MAVOLUX 5032 B having an initial sensitivity of 0.01 lx allows measuring extremely low light intensities, such as emergency lighting. Most important: The MAVOLUX 5032B is optimally suited for certification and official inspection procedures due to its high precision acc. to Class B.
 
  • Illuminance can be measured in Lux or Footcandle
  • Luminance can be measured in candles per square meter (cd/m˛) or Footlambert (fL) with optional luminance attachments
  • Wide measuring ranges
  • High resolution
  • Meets Standards DIN 5032-7 and CIE no. 69
  • ilicon photo diode, colour corrected, i.e. its spectral responsitivity is matched to the spectral phototic vision of the human eye V(). The accuracy of that V() matching is the main difference between the two MAVOLUX types C and B.
  • Cosine correction for oblique inciding light
  • USB 1.1 Interface
  • CD Rom with software for processing the values measured and regulating the meter
  • Rugged instrument design, easy operation
  • Ever-ready case, USB-cable included

Monitoring of the ambient light according to IEC 61223-2-5
(QS-RL dt. Nov. 20, 2003)
The MAVO-MAX extends the repeating cycles to six months for testing the constancy at imaging display systems concerning the „veil luminance“ and the „max. brightness constrast“. It provides testing the intensity of the ambient light. In case of repeat measurements in the course of inspection or constancy tests,the repetition of the „veil luminance“ measurement will not be required. Therefore, it saves the waiting time of upto 60 minutes, which must be observed for this procedure to ensure stability of the imaging display. The MAVO-Max fully meets the needs in all medical applications, where constant illuminance e.g. at diagnoses monitors and viewing systems (DIN 6856-1) is required. A green LED at the MAVO-MAX will indicate the permissible value for the ambient light in the range of 20 – 60 Lux. If the ambient light exceeds these limit values allowed for at the diagnoses monitor, a red LED will come on. Just connect the cable of the MAVO-MAX to the mains plug and stick the MAVO-MAX to the top of the monitor.
 
  • Monitoring range: 20 to 60 Lux
  • Direct connection to the mains plug
  • Continuous operation
