In our efforts to maintain the permanent high quality of the products offered by our company, and of their innovativeness, the part of the laboratory tests could not have missed in the design process and later throughout the production process. The company has its own photometric laboratory, allowing us a continuous review of relevant parameters of each lamp produced in our plant and facilitating the preparation of prototypes for the homologation process.
The equipment of our photometric laboratory includes among others:
Colorimeter - which is used to measure x, y coordinates of emitted ligh color;
Photometer - used to measure the luminous intensity or illumination intensity;
Goniometer - - to set the lamps at a right angle to the measuring head;
Transmitter - receiver block for measuring the CIL reflection coefficient;
Stand for measuring the luminance of registration plates;
and standard light bulbs of different power and shapes, standard plates for calibrating the reflection coefficient measuring system, dedicated software and stabilized laboratory feeders with current and voltage adjustment. All these items of equipment are calibrated and subjected to periodic tests of compliance.
Such equipped laboratory allows us to perform the test:
- illumination ;
- color temperature ;
- angular distribution of luminous intensity;
- the angular distribution of color temperature;
- chromaticity coordinates.
In our photometric laboratory, we perform the following work:
- preparatory measurements for the homologation process of new lamps. Our measurement equipment allows us to determine with 100% certainty whether we meet the conditions of statutory requirements;
- lamp testing at a given supply voltage and different atmospheric conditions simulated in a freezer, at an ambient temperature and submerged under water with salt. In all cases, the lamps are periodically switched on and off;
- lamp testing during operation on a "shaker". Lamps are switched on and undergo vibrations similar to those occurring in natural conditions;
- controls of the actual production in terms as regards the color of lenses, reflection coefficient and luminous intensity of lamps.
