MAVOPROBE MONITOR – The High-Precision Luminance Probe

This MAVOPROBE MONITOR for contact measurements are assigned to class B in accordance with DIN 5032-7, DIN EN 13032-1 appendix B, and ISO/CIE 19476. It measures the perceived brightness of luminous surfaces in candelas per square meter (cd/m²) or foot-lamberts (fL). Excellent matching to the spectral brightness sensitivity of the human eye V(λ) is highly precise with a minimal deviation of just f1‘ < 3%, which is significantly better than specified in the standard.

MAVOPROBE MONITOR Specifications:

• BROAD MEASURING RANGE – high initial sensitivity and a resolution of 0.001 cd/m² or 0.001 fL, right on up to 19,999 cd/m² or 1999 fL.
• V(λ) MATCHING – the spectral sensitivity of the silicon photodiode is color corrected and corresponds very closely to the spectral brightness sensitivity of the human eye V(λ). Light entry surface: diameter 19 mm diameter.

Newly developed from the ground up, MAVOMASTER and MAVOPROBES elevate light metering and certification to an entirely new level: a universal, basic MAVOMASTER meter can now be easily and flexibly combined with a diverse range of MAVOPROBES (measuring probes). For example with classified measuring probes for illuminance in accordance with DIN 5032-7 class B or C, luminance in accordance with DIN 5032-7 class B or with a UV-A/LUX combination probe for non-destructive testing – for efficient light testing and certification in a great variety of applications.

Each MAVOPROBE is balanced prior to shipment and can be connected immediately to any MAVOMASTER. The classified MAVOPROBES transmit acquired measurement data to the MAVOMASTER in digital format. Furthermore, it’s also possible to connect the measuring probes directly to a computer using an optional USB adapter cable. A single to multi-channel measuring system can thus be implemented with the measuring probes. The measuring probes can also be consolidated using a USB hub and supplied with voltage from a power pack. The open interface protocol makes it simple and easy to integrate the measuring probes into your own applications. The firmware for all of the probes and the basic meter is updated via the USB interface. The system concept also offers advantages for calibration because the measuring probes can be calibrated separately – for simplified shipping and reduced downtime.

The intelligent components of our light metering system open up new possibilities – whether a stand-alone measuring instrument is required or when setting up single or multi-channel measuring systems. Various measuring requirements specified in the fields of photometry and radiometry are covered by the individual MAVOPROBE measuring probes. All of the intelligence required for the processing of measured values is now located in the probe, thus permitting universal use and separate calibration.

Each probe can be used with a MAVOMASTER as a stand-alone measuring instrument. The probes can also be used cost-effectively in single or multi-channel measuring systems with an optional USB adapter.

With optional 3, 5 and 10 m measuring probes extension cords.
