PeakTech 5086 Digital LED Lux Meter User Manual

1. Úvod a konecview

The PeakTech 5086 is a precise 3 3/4 digit (max. 3999) LCD digital LED Lux Meter designed for measuring the light intensity of various light sources, including LED, fluorescent, and traditional incandescent lamps with different light colors. It measures in Lux (lx), Footcandle (FC), or Candela (cd).

Unlike simpler lux meters that are typically calibrated for incandescent bulbs at 2856 K and provide inaccurate results for different color temperatures, the PeakTech 5086 allows for the adjustment of various light source factors. This enables accurate measurements for neon lamps, žárovka lamps, red, blue, yellow LEDs, or daylight. The device features 10 freely adjustable correction factors for different light sources, 99 memory locations for measurement values, and useful measurement functions such as minimum, maximum, and average value tracking, as well as data hold. This makes it suitable for professional applications in occupational safety or lighting system evaluation.
