Thai RoHS standard on the way
SGS will offer testing and certification services to Thailand when its version of the EU RoHS comes into force, which is predicted to be April 2007.
This device can measure variables such as: luminous intensity distributions, luminance distributions, luminous flux (lm = lumen), utilisation coefficient, service illuminance (lx = lux), optical power (W = Watt), colour rendering power index (Ra index), colour temperature (K= Kelvin), chromaticity coordinates (x and y) ,spectrum distribution wave of visual light SGS Fimko carries out measurements of these variables on normal use and safety luminaires, incandescent, fluorescent and discharge lamps, control gears of lighting fittings and flat screens.
The near-field goniophotometer is able to measure the correct luminous intensity distributions at a close distance from the measuring object without moving the measured object and with the luminance distribution data shown as a "digital photo".
Photometric measurements can be carried out within a week e.g as follows: in combination with safety, EMC and ROHS testing as well as certification (FI, CB, CB-EMC; GS, ENEC, NRTL) as benchmarking, product development and quality control tests Based on our tests you can get an impartial Statement of Test Result as a marketing tool which offers you a competitive edge on the market.
