GIGAHERTZ-OPTIK VL-3707 Micro-Lux Photopic Detector is capable of accurate illuminance measurements down to less than 100μlux. Device is suitable for extreme low light level applications. The ability to measure moonlight and starlight (mlux to μlux) enables research on night sky light pollution. Also emergency and egress lighting standards (e.g. DIN EN 1838 and ISO 30061) require measurement resolution in the mlux range. At 37mm diameter x 21mm high device’s low profile enables measurements in remote tight spaces.
