Gossen | MAVOLUX 5032B USB | Lux meter

Contact Instrument Solutions

Available to hire from Instrument Solutions is the Gossen MAVOLUX 5032B USB lux meter for measuring illuminance complete with probe, probe zero cap, case, gLux2 software CD, USB cable, battery (fitted) + battery (spare), operating instructions, calibration certificate

The MAVOLUX 5032B USB is used primarily for certification and inspection applications due to its outstanding accuracy in accordance with class B of DIN 5032-7 / appendix B of BS EN 13032-1 (Light and lighting. Measurement and presentation of photometric data of lamps and luminaires).  The units comes with a high sensitivity of 0.01 lx that makes it possible to measure extremely small light intensities. This even permits reliable measurement of emergency lighting. After pressing the HOLD key, the measured value is saved to memory and display illumination included with this version is activated, making it possible to read the display in dark environments. Adaptation to the spectral brightness sensitivity of the human eye V(λ) is highly precise with minimal deviation of just f1‘ < 3 %.

FEATURES

BROAD MEASURING RANGE - High initial sensitivity and a resolution of 0.01 lx or 0.001 fc for the MAVOLUX 5032 B USB, right on up to large illuminance values of 199,900 lx or 19,990 fc.

V(λ) ADAPTATION - The spectral sensitivity of the silicon photodiode is colour corrected and corresponds to the spectral brightness sensitivity of the human eye V(λ). 

COSINE CORRECTIONS - The luminosity of a flat measuring surface is proportional to the cosine of the incident angle of light. This relationship is taken into consideration by the sensor during evaluation.

COMPUTER-AIDED MEASUREMENT - The meter’s continuous operating mode is assured thanks to power supply via the USB port. Meter control, as well as reading, display and storage of measured values, is managed with GLUX 2 software, CD is included in the Instrument Solutions delivery contents.

NON-VOLATILE MEMORY - 100 measured values can be saved, retrieved or transmitted to a PC via the integrated USB port. Average illuminance values can also be calculated as a result.

CONVENIENT EVERYDAY USE - Simple operation, easy to read display, compact design, protection during transport in a high quality aluminium case.
