Type C goniophotometer for LM-79 luminous intensity measurement
When measuring the luminous intensity of a light source in accordance with the LM-79 standard, a goniophotometer of type C is the instrument of choice. Candelas are often used as a common unit of measurement for luminous intensity, which is defined as the quantity of light that is emitted in a certain direction (cd). The LM-79 standard offers a complete set of standards and processes for assessing the photometric and electrical properties of solid-state lighting (SSL) devices. These characteristics include lumen output, color rendering index, and power consumption. The use of a Type C goniophotometer, which is a highly accurate and precise instrument that was created expressly for this kind of measurement, is required for compliance with the standard since it is the method of choice for determining the luminous intensity of a light source. A goniophotometer of type C determines the luminous intensity of an object by pointing a light source in the direction of a detector and deter
