Choose the best way to connect and control the system based on project or application requirements. USB or TCP/IP communication can be used for direct data transfer. Additional trigger interface is available for fast testing purposes.

Multiple Integrations

Specially designed entrance connector provides high stability and precision for fiber optic connections. Integrating spheres and various options for other optical probes for different types of systems are available.

GL Spectis 6.0 Usage

LED chip and LED lamps production process control

New international standards for LED lighting put additional demand on complete measurement systems which can perform optical test along with the electrical and thermal parameters testers. The GL Spectis 6.0 LED spectroradiometer uses industrial standard 19″ rack housing for easy integration into production testing systems and larger laboratory settings to include power measurement, TEC systems, triggers and other testing devices.

Simplified Integration

Practical industrial rack housing allows for easy connection of complexed measurement systems. Available USB and Serial interface simplifies integration with different types of control software and data systems.

Extended Spectral Range

With a wide wavelength range from 200 to 1050nm, the Spectis 6.0 allows for measurements in accordance with a number of standards, including Photobiological Safety (IEC EN 62471) or measurement of SSL products (IESNA LM-79-08) and the latest global CIE S025 standard. One device can cover many different types of measurements.

Measurements of LEDs

  • Photobiological Safety testing of LED Products in accordance with EN 62471.
  • Measure of SSL Products in accordance with (IES) LM-79-08.
  • Ecodesign requirements in accordance with (EU) No 1194/2012.

GL Spectis 6.0 Features

Photometric and radiometric calibration

An absolute spectral calibration is integrated into each spectrometer before delivery thereby enabling the accurate measurement of different absolute values such as lux, candela or lumen together with radiometric values depending on the measurement accessory installed.

Dark Current Compensation

Despite the fact that it is not a cooled detector instrument, the Spects 6.0 is ready to provide very accurate measurements in different conditions. A temperature sensor installed on the electronic board monitors changes in temperature and automatically compensates for any change in dark current level ensuring excellent measurement stability.

Variety of integrating spheres and probes available

With the universal concept and design of the Spectis 6.0, you can easily expand your measurement system by adding any one of our integrating spheres or additional accessories.

Automatic accessory detection

The Spectis 6.0 possesses a unique mechanism to detect and automatically load the correct calibration file for that attached accessory. This enables the user to confidently avoid measuring errors when changing accessory interfaces. The calibration meets the requirements of leading standards institutes and is confirmed with a manufacturer’s certification.

Spectis 6.0 Metrics

Our preconfigured, individually calibrated LED spectroradiometers deliver fast and precise results for nearly any practical light measurement application. Measure in seconds and review the results directly on the handheld display or dig deeper with the optional analysis and automation software. Using the Spectis 6.0 rackmount spectroradiometer, you can measure any or all of the following optical quantities:

  • Lux – irradiance
  • Lumen – luminous flux
  • CRI – color rendering index according to the CIE
  • CCT – the color temperature according to standard CIE
  • Color – the chromatic coordinates of the CIE 1931 and CIE 1964
  • TM-30 – color rendering using the latest IES recommend approach
  • Fidelity and Gamut – method for evaluating light source color rendition according to TM-30 IES standard
  • PAR/PPFD – photosynthetic active radiation measurements for horticulture
  • EML – biological effects of light on humanism equivalent melanopic luxe
  • mWatt – radiation energy
  • + many more!

* Dynamic range is spectrum related and should be calculated separately for any light source. Estimated dynamic range for typical 4000 K white LED.
Range estimated for optical system made to default specification. Alterations of that are often possible. Please consult technical support if you are looking for specific parameters.

** Spectral range of the sensor. Actual spectral range of system may be reduced due to limitations of used optical accessory.

*** Absolute measurement uncertainty immediately after calibration. The expanded uncertainty corresponds to a coverage probability of 95 % and the coverage factor k = 2.
Parameters valid in laboratory conditions 25deg C, relative humidity 45%.

**** Applies only within the spectral range of the given model.
