The spr'3 spectral measurement system is used for simple and precise measurement of absolute spectral emission from the UV to the NIR range. The compact portable device integrates high-quality spectrometer and photometer components in the smallest installation space (approx. 250 - 1050 nm).
Its field of application is the measurement of light sources, luminaires and optical systems in the wavelength range of 200-1100 nm. The measurement of the absolute spectral emission also offers a very high accuracy for the measurement of narrow-band light sources, e.g. LEDs. An integrated filter wheel, which can be equipped with filters of any choice, allows the measuring range to be extended or pre-filtering of the radiation to be carried out. Spectrometer and absolute sensor technology form a compact unit. The simple data connection to any computer or laptop is ensured via a USB interface. Operation directly in the LAN is also possible.
All calibration information is located on the sensor head. Thus, the system can be operated with different PCs. The robust system works without external optical fibres and can be used in a rough environment, also because of the stable full metal housing. The control and evaluation software has been newly developed and offers a wide range of evaluation options.
The spr'3 units are delivered fully calibrated. opsira offers recalibration and test equipment monitoring as a service.

The spec'3 spectral measurement system enables the fast measurement of spectral distributions from UV to NIR. Due to the corresponding weighting functions, the direct output of parameters such as MED, the blue light hazard or many other weightings is possible in a simple and user-definable way. In the visible spectral range, the colorimetric values according to CIE are generated directly. This can be done continuously in live mode, which makes it easy to observe changes over time or also provides useful support for adjustment tasks. Color tolerance ranges can be defined in the evaluation software to perform a quick test against test specifications. The color rendering values according to CIE are permanently updated in live mode.
The color rendering diagram gives a quick and easy overview of all values from R1 to R15. Here, the color distance ΔC to the Planckian plane as well as the corresponding reference color temperature are generated in order to be able to evaluate the measured values in a meaningful way. The automatic adjustment of the integration time as well as the integrated automatic shutter for dark correction always keep the system at the optimal operating point and ensure that the digitisation depth is always fully utilised.
The configuration with the spec'3 spectrometer is included in the goniophotometer robogonio product line top line.
