Turn-key Testing System for Quality Control in Production Lines of Luminaires

LightTester 100 (maximum size of luminaire 1 m) and LightTester 160 (maximum size of luminaire 1.6 m) are versatile test stations for quality control of luminaires during production. The verification of most important photometric values (such as lumens, CCT etc.) and electrical safety has been integrated into one single test unit.  The testing sequence time is even < 10 seconds, so the LightTester 100 and 160 are suitable for 100% testing scheme. The LightTester 100/160 is delivered as a ready-made package, including everything you need, such as a test station table, test computer with software and measuring equipment.In the test software, the measured values ​​are stored in a database. In the test software it is possible to give fail-pass criteria for each luminaire type and for each measurement parameter.
The LightTester 100/160 can be configured to be integrated as a part of the production assembly line or they can be stand-alone testing setup.

Flicker measurement is requested by ecodesign regulation for all the light sources put to market after 1.9.2021

SSL FAS 21 setup

• dedicated and cost effective setup for flicker analysis of luminaires
• optional fully integrated network voltage fluctuation module

Flicker photometer or colorimeter 

• select one that best fits your application
• choice of measurement ranges from 0.003 lx to 10 000 000 lx
• USB or RS-232
• linearity better than 0.1%

Flicker-sw 

• measurements available: Percent flicker, Flicker index, Flicker frequency, SVM and PstLM 
• fail / pass check
• automated reporting
• statistics of several consecutive flicker measurements
• averaging for noisy illuminance signal

Options

SSL BTC 20 is a camera based setup for fast yet reproducible beam pattern measurements of directional light sources such as automotive and flashlight sources. The typical measurement time is 5 - 10 seconds.  BTC 20 produces comparable results to turning goniophotometers with an accuracy of 7 %. The dynamic measurement range is from 0.3 cd up to 70 000 000 cd.

SSL BTC 20 is a good choice for characterizing essential photometric parameters of automotive lighting fixtures and portable flashlights. Other popular application is testing of spot lamps in the connection of the assembly line of the lighting fixtures.Measurement parameters:

• Beam pattern
• Axial luminous intensity
• Maximum luminous intensity 
• Beam distance 
• Isolux curves on the road surface and vertical plane
• Isolux curves on the horizontal level at luminaire height
• Partial luminous flux and efficacy
• ANSI/NEMA FL 1-2009 test routines to measure
• beam distance
• maximum beam intensity
• runtime of photometric performance of flash lights.

Options:

• Input power measurement
• Spatial color parameters
• Turning axis for vertical plane

SSL FiLMI 2.3 creates a luminance map over an area by one mouse click. This data can be used to determine the level and variation of luminance in the measurement area. These values are needed e.g. when lighting of roads are evaluated.

• SSL-FiLMI-sw measurement parameters
• Lav (average luminance)
• Uo overall uniformity
• Uow (overall uniformity wet
• Ul (longitudinal uniformity)
• required illumination at the entrance of a tunnel
•   (L20 and perceived contrast)

Determination of these are required in road lighting standards like CIE 088 and EN 13201.

An automatic report is saved or printed after the measurement. The report includes identification data for the measured object, the measured parameter values and pass/fail criteria if such exist.
