Product information "Sauter SV 100 light meter, 0 to 400,000 lx, Bluetooth, 99 measurement groups"
The Sauter SV 100 measures illuminance in a single range from 0 to 400,000 lx with a readability of 1 lx, without having to switch between measuring ranges. The sensor head is rotatable and connected to the device by a cable. The device stores up to 99 measurement groups and transmits data via a Bluetooth app. Three AAA batteries are included in the scope of delivery and, according to Kern, last for up to 100 h.
A measuring range up to 400,000 lx
The range up to 400,000 lx also covers bright outdoor light. The SV 100 displays from 0 lx to 400,000 lx in real time. According to Kern, the measurement accuracy is ± 3 % of Max. The device can also display readings in fc (foot-candles). The device operates using a colour correction factor (CCF).
Rotatable sensor head on a cable
The sensor head sits on the device and is connected by a 0.6 m long cable. It can be rotated so that it can be aligned with the light source, even whilst reading the display. A mounting thread accommodates a tripod. The hold function holds the measured value, the auto-off function switches the device off after 10 min.
Memory and Bluetooth
The data remains in the device; up to 99 measurement groups can be stored. The values are transferred to a mobile device or PC via the Bluetooth app. This saves copying values in measurement series at several points. In offices and laboratories, measurements are taken workstation by workstation, with each position saved as a separate measurement group. In street lighting checks, which Kern gives as an example, the sensor head is held at measuring height and the real-time display is read.
Typical applications
- Health and safety and public authorities: checking illuminance at workstations and in traffic areas
- Office equipment and ergonomics consultancy: assessing lighting at office workstations
- Lighting design, architecture and interior fit-out: measuring lighting during planning and acceptance
- Horticulture and agricultural engineering: measuring light levels in greenhouses
- Film and photography production: measuring illuminance on set
Kern cites examples such as workplaces in offices or laboratories and street lighting inspections. Those who only measure up to 200,000 lx and need a remote sensor with 1 m cable will find the SO 200K, with LED filter the SP 200K.
