Product Monday: Advanced Light Hazard Meter by Gigahertz-Optik

The committee members involved in writing ANSI/IESNA RP-27.2-00, IEC/DIN/EN 62471 (CIE S 009) & DIN EN 14255-1 Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems-measurement techniques recognized that lamp manufacturers and distributors, safety engineers and industrial hygienists tasked with optical radiation health hazard assessment require a portable, accurate and cost effective means of metrology.

Subsequently, the use of filter radiometers, with some restrictions, was written into the standard as an alternative measurement method to the more complex, stationary and expensive spectroradiometric method.

Gigahertz-Optik’s X1-3 Light Hazard Meter with the XD-45-HUV UV-Hazard Detector, XD-45-HB BLUE-Light Hazard Detector and XD-45-HB-SRT200 FOV & Distance Adapter fulfills this requirement for a handy field portable meter for product classification and light hazard assessment.

Four channel technology with an alphanumeric four line backlit display allows the X1-3 to operate and read-out the two separate multi-sensor/filter detectors required to conform to IEC 62471 guidelines for both UV and Blue light hazard assessment.
