The Mavospec Lite provides you with certified safety – for the light which ideally fulfills your requirements in every respect.

Regardless of the lighting situation – from private residential or professional, right on up to industrial – compliance with specified values and standards, as well as consideration of quantitative and qualitative requirements, are decisive in terms of the achieved lighting effect. The Mavospec Lite assesses your light and delivers information covering all relevant factors – certified and documented for more safety from planning to commissioning.

The Mavospec Lite Provides Support for Lighting Design

From selecting and matching various light sources all the way through to checking the results and approving the installation, the Mavospec Lite provides you with all-important values.

The Mavospec Lite Proactively Detects Electrical Installation Problems

By proactively assessing the light quality of delivered lighting fixtures, you can avoid subsequent complaints in advance and ensure smooth approval procedures by quickly checking the lighting installation at the touch of a button.

The Mavospec Lite Ensures Standards-Compliant Workstations

Defined, precisely specified lighting quality is stipulated in the standards for workstations. These requirements are especially strict in, for example, the medical engineering, cosmetics, and chemicals industries. The Mavospec Lite provides you with all of the decisive values simply and quickly – for certified safe light.

The Mavospec Lite Makes Public Places Safe

Changeovers to LED lighting and new installations in public areas – lighting has to ensure safety and comply with the standards in these applications. The Mavospec Lite supports you in your testing process and provides you with certified, documented security.

The Mavospec Lite provides you with all of the decisive factors – accurately and with certification

Precise and easy-to-use light measurement and documentation for any user, anytime, anywhere – the Mavospec Lite was developed precisely for this purpose. All measured quantities which are relevant for light such as illuminance, correlated color temperature, color rendering index in accordance with CIE 13.3, color coordinates in accordance with various CIE standards, and spectral power distribution are determined from the measured spectrum by simply pressing a key and displayed comprehensibly for experts as well as laypersons. Light measurement is made extremely easy as a result.

represents the radiant power of a light source for a wavelength or a waveband in the visible range. It provides us with information about color characteristics and can be used to compare the color temperature of different light sources. Information can be inferred from this regarding color rendering properties, because missing or attenuated portions of the spectrum result in color rendering errors.

Ra is a measure of the color rendering properties of lamps and has a theoretical maximum value of 100. The higher the color rendering index, the better the color rendering properties of the lamp. Color rendering which is as natural as possible is achieved through the use of lamps with an Ra value of greater than 90. Ra is the arithmetic mean of the color deviation of the first 8 of 14 test colors according to DIN 6169. An extension to this is the color rendering index Re, which is calculated over all 14 test colors and the additional test color 15 (Asia Skin Color), which also takes into account saturated colors, leaf green and skin tones. DIN EN 12464 specifies the color rendering properties of lamps used to illuminate various types of rooms and activities.

are a means of precisely defining a color, i.e. a color’s chromaticity as specified by the coordinates of the CIE diagram. The human eye is equipped with sensory cells for the perception of the three primary colors, namely red, green, and blue. Photopic curves for the standard observer were ascertained in 1931 by the CIE and indicate sensitivity for the individual wavelength ranges..

is a measure of the vividness of the color representation and is used primarily in the evaluation of exhibition and museum lighting. It is an indicator of how well the octahedral surface defined by the eight test colors of the Ra in the color space is covered by the light source.

indicates with how much intensity a surface is illuminated. It amounts to one lux when a luminous flux of one lumen illuminates a surface of one square meter. Luxmeters are used to measure illuminance at horizontal and vertical surfaces. However, illuminance does not indicate the brightness impression of a room, because this depends to a great extent on the room’s reflective characteristics. As a rule, uniform light distribution is not achieved with normal lighting, for which reason specifications in the standards usually make reference to mean illuminance This value is calculated as the weighted arithmetic mean of all illuminance values in the room.

Is a function which is used to quantitatively specify the respective color impression of a light source. The unit of measure for color temperature is degrees Kelvin (K). In concrete terms, it’s the temperature whose light effect is most similar to the color to be described at uniform brightness under specified observation conditions.

The Mavospec Lite either stores the measured values on the integrated micro-SD card at the touch of a button or automatically and is recognized as a removable data medium when connected to a computer. The measurement files saved in CSV format can be easily opened, copied, moved, or deleted.

Flexible Reporting

The included Excel template offers various measurement reports, the elements of which can be adapted as required and combined to create new customer-specific templates. All of the template’s elements access the data spreadsheet, to which stored measured value files are read in automatically after pressing a key. A measurement can also be started with the connected meter and transferred automatically. Complete documentation is thus generated quickly and easily.
