SPECTRUM100

Product catalog summary
Overview: The SPECTRUM100 is a versatile light sensor unit designed with three specialized sensors for detecting ultraviolet (UVA, UVB), ambient light (ALS), color (RGB), infrared (IR), and a broad white light band. It features a compact design for easy integration in space-constrained environments.
Key Features:
  • Installation time is less than 10 minutes.
  • Each unit has a unique serial number for traceability and certification.
  • Includes free DAQ software for real-time data visualization and logging.
  • Offers command-line tools for direct data access and integration.
  • Supports Virtual COM Port (VCP) communication protocol.
Specifications:
  • Ambient Light Sensor (ALS): Detection range of 0 to 120,000 lx with a digital resolution of 0.072 lx/step and a dynamic range of 16 bits.
  • White Light Sensor: Similar detection range and resolution as ALS, with a peak spectral response at 600 nm.
  • Color (RGB) and Infrared Light: Detection range up to 16,496 lx with a digital resolution of 0.007865 lx/step.
  • Ultraviolet Light: UVA and UVB responsivity with peak spectral responses at 365 nm and 330 nm, respectively.
  • General: Operates at 5V via USB with a maximum current consumption of 25 mA. Dimensions are 7L x 2W x 1H cm, and it weighs 8 g.
Applications: Suitable for OEM, greenhouse monitoring, ambient light level detection, on/off lighting systems, event counting, backlighting level, LIMS integration, building automation, and equipment light monitoring.
Installation and Usage Tips:
  • Ensure the sensor is placed at the point of interest for accurate readings.
  • Best accuracy is achieved when the sensor directly faces the light source.
  • Power on the unit at least 15 minutes before use for optimal performance.
Warnings and Notes:
  • The product is not designed for human applications.
  • It is not waterproof and should be protected from water exposure.
  • Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and vibrations can affect sensor accuracy.
Ordering Information: The product can be ordered using part number 601042 for the 5-BANDS SPECTRUM LIGHT USB SENSOR.

SPECTRUM100-1

8-BANDS SPECTRUM LIGHT USB SENSOR The SPECTRUM100 is a very versatile unit. It is designed using three specialized sensors that detect ultraviolet (UVA, UVB), ambient light (ALS) that matches real human eye responses, colour (RGB), infrared (Ir) and a large white light band. All three sensors are very sensitive and stable in time within their ranges of respective detection and ◌ Greenhouse ◌ Ambiant light level ◌ On- / off-lighting system ◌ Event counting ◌ Backlighting level are factory temperature compensated for a minimum temperature offset. The compact enclosure form factor allows for easy integration ◌ Monitoring light colour changes even in space-constrained locations.
