  • V(λ)-matching according to DIN 5032 Part 7, Class B
  • Wide measurement range at high resolution of 0.01 cd/m²
  • Hold function
  • Data logger for 100 measured values, USB connector and evaluation software
  • Innovative and functional

The MAVO-MONITOR

The luminance meter MAVO-MONITOR is a easy-to-handle and a high precision measuring device for professional application. It can determine the luminance in the units candela per m² (cd/m²) or footLambert (fL) at high precision. The MAVO-MONITOR enables contact measurement at illuminated workstations of office and medical technology, TV sets, light boxes and light panels, luminous advertising or traffic signs.



Measurements according to DIN 5032

The light sensor is color corrected, i.e. its spectral responsitivity has been matched to that of the human eye V(λ), therefore it is not necessary to apply correction factors. The MAVO-MONITOR fully complies with the requirements of class B according to the Standard Specification DIN 5032, Part 7 (German Institute for Standardization DIN).

The MAVO-MONITOR brings along with it an autorange implementation, which automatically selects the best suited measurement range. Alternatively by using the function keys you can manually browse up or down through the measurement ranges. A temporary result buffer enables to hold the measured value for reading at a later date. Furthermore the instrument is provided with a measurement data memory of 100 locations, which can be read and processed with the device or the standard software for PC supplied with the meter.

Optional accessory for MAVO-MONITOR

Calculating disk
for evaluation of photographic
shutter speed/f-stop combinations

gLUx evaluation software

The evaluation software gLux enables to measure at a specified intervall and measuring unit and to list or chart these measured values. Measurement values can be saved as .txt-file, so that the result can be evaluated using a data base or a spreadsheet application. The setup of the device can also be performed by the gLux software. By attaching the measuring device to your PC using the USB interface, it can be energized by the interface for permanent operation. The software supports installation on windows 98SE and downwards compatible systems. Older versions of windows don't support the USB interface.
gLux features additional functions to adjust weighting factors and measured variables, measurement ranges and sampling intervals to continuous measurements. Furthermore gLux offers the rendition of a test pattern with the densities of the SMPTE color bars for acceptance inspections and constancy tests according to IEC 61223-2-5.
The language of the user interface of gLux, german, english, spanish or french, can be chosen by the user on start of the program.
