Measure and log light levels over a period of time with Chauvin Arnoux's datalogging light meter, the CA1110.
Suitable for use with a wide variety of light sources - including LED lighting - the CA1110 light meter has a remote light sensor which is connected to the instrument by a flexible cable. This flexible sensor makes the CA1110 ideal for measuring in even tricky environments, giving the user the ability to mount the sensor somewhere, or hold the sensor in one hand while taking readings with the instrument in the other.
With the Chauvin Arnoux CA1110's datalogging capabilities, you can set the instrument to log light levels at a rate set by you. The recording interval can be adjusted from every minute up to 2 hours using the included software and it is also possible to set a start and end date for recording for prolonged studies. More than 1 million data records can be stored directly on the tester's memory, then downloaded to a PC for further analysis using Chauvin Arnoux's Datalogger software package (available as a download from Chauvin Arnoux's website).
This light meter also has a special mode known as MAP - using this, you can map out the lighting on a surface or in a room. All measurements are saved together in the same file for ease of use.
Additional features of this light meter include long 500 hour battery life, Bluetooth/USB communication, lux/footcandle measurement modes and a built-in backlight for use in poor lighting conditions.
Please note that the software required for download is available on Chauvin Arnoux's website.
