The service includes radiometric, photometric and colourimetric measurements in our laboratories used to verify whether light sources and lighting products meet specified requirements. Measurements document optical properties and provide a basis for assessing whether the delivered light quality meets customer, authority and applicable standards.
Lighting, optics and photonics
Accredited light measurement for light sources and products
Get accredited light measurement that verifies requirements and documents light quality for manufacturers and authorities.
Accredited light measurement supports manufacturers of light sources, luminaires and other lighting products, as well as certifying authorities that need an impartial partner for testing and measurement. The need typically arises when products must be tested and verified against customer requirements, authority requirements and applicable standards, or when prototypes, concepts and product designs must be evaluated and adjusted.
Deviations may have consequences
Without documented light data, uncertainty about optical properties can delay decisions and product adjustments. Unresolved deviations can lead to fixture replacements, fines and lawsuits, while limited documentation makes it harder to confirm that safety, quality and performance are met for products on the market. The service is part of a suite of lighting, optics and photonics services.
Challenges
When verified light data is missing, the uncertainty of requirement checks increases.
Unverified optical properties delay product decisions
When radiometric, photometric and colourimetric properties are not documented, manufacturers cannot clearly verify whether products meet customer, authority or applicable standards.
Deviations in light output are hard to locate
When light sources or lighting systems show problems or variances, the lack of precise measurements makes it difficult to identify where adjustments, fixes or improvements are needed.
Insufficient documentation increases risk
Without impartial analyses and recognised documentation, teams have a weaker basis for documenting product quality and may face fixture replacements, fines or legal disputes.
Product development lacks quantified evidence
When prototypes or new concepts are changed without documented light data, it becomes harder to evaluate the effect of design changes and new technologies.
Benefits
Get documented light data that supports verification, quality documentation and product improvement.
Document requirements with impartial results
Light measurements, analyses and documentation from the DANAK-accredited laboratory provide an impartial basis for verifying specified requirements and strengthen documentation for manufacturers, authorities and certifying authorities.
