Illuminance Spectrophotometer

For evaluation of high-class next-generation lamps such as LED illumination and EL illuminationNow scotopic illuminance can also be measured.

Ideal for evaluating CRI (color rendering index)

The fi rst illuminance spectrophotometer that conforms to both DIN and JIS standards. Includes convenient, easy-to-use PC software.

Both instrument and included software have been upgraded to provide improved instrument operation and software display of MacAdam SDCM levels.

For correct use and for your safety, be sure to read the instruction manual before using the instrument.●Always connect the instrument to the specified power

supply voltage. Improper connection may cause a fire or electric shock.
