About ILUmetriX
ILUmetriX GmbH is an independent institute for applied lighting technology based in Meschede in the Sauerland region. Its core business is standards-compliant measurement of light sources and luminaires. Its range of services includes photometric measurements according to EN 13032 and IES LM-79-08, luminous flux measurements, the creation of 3D luminous intensity distributions (LVK, LDT/IES), temperature-dependent measurements on LED modules, flicker measurements and spectral measurements in the 200–3000 nm range. In addition, the company offers photobiological safety testing according to DIN EN 62471 using a double monochromator system, EMC measurements according to EN 55015, EN 61547 and EN 61000-3-2, as well as consulting on European directives, regulations and standards in lighting technology. Founded in 2008, the company set up a modern lighting laboratory with high-quality measurement equipment on a former weaving mill site, including a rotating-mirror goniophotometer with a 15 m measuring distance, integrating spheres (Ulbricht spheres) and a double monochromator IDR 300 PSL. Its customers are manufacturers of lamps, LED modules and luminaires from the lighting industry.
