SSL GONIOPHOTOMETERS
SSL Goniophotometer system has been developed for the measurement of light intensity distributions of different kinds of light sources. The goniophotometer consists of a goniometer, a photometer (or colorimeter instead as an option), a spectroradiometer (optional) and a power meter (optional). The SSL goniometers are several models for different size and type of luminaires. All gonio models are equipped with the similar gonio controller.
The SSL Goniometers of type C use the C-γ coordinate having the optical axis in horizontal direction. Thus the luminaire under test (LUT) is operated in horizontal axis. The C type goniometer is used in measuring SSL lamps, modules, and luminaires.
The B type goniometers, which use B-ß coordinates, are typically used in measuring automotive lighting and floodlights. More information about B type goniometer or please, contact us, we are happy to help you choose the right gonio for your needs.
The luminous intensity is recorded accurately by combination of a high quality photometer, or colorimeter/spectrometer and power meter with a feature of simultaneous measurement of photometric, spectral, colormetric and electrical parameters of the LUT. The measurement results are reported in standard file formats like IES and EULUMDAT for making possible the reliable 3D lighting simulation. Various lighting application figures like transversal/longitudinal isolux curves or cone diagrams are analyzed and illustrated automatically after measurements in the gonio program GPM.
Gonispectrophotometric testing system
GONIOMETRIC MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE, the C type
The luminaire is rotated around the horizontal and vertical axis and at each position the photometric signal is measured at a fixed photometer location in the far field of radiation.
The C-plane is controlled by the horizontal axis. In each C plane, the angular luminous intensity distribution of the LUT is measured as a function of γ-angle by turning the LUT with the vertical axis.
The horizontal and vertical axes are moved with a sufficient angular
step and range to reliably measure the angular luminous intensity
distribution of LUT. The luminous flux can be reliably calculated by
summing up all the luminous intensities from each measurement direction.
The SSL goniophotometers follow the CIE S 025 and IES LM-79-08 standards.
