PCE LXT-TRM Light Meter (0~50,000 lux)

PCE LXT-TRM Light Meter (0~50,000 lux)

The PCE LXT-TRM light meter is an optimal solution designed with a signal transmitter and a detached light sensor probe connected via a 1.5-meter cable along with a wall mounting bracket, specialized for monitoring illumination levels in a measuring range from 0 to 50,000 lux. The device operates based on continuous photometrical methods, helping to effectively control lighting indicators without affecting operations or the testing environment.

Outstanding Features

Comprehensive optical measurement system: The device is equipped with a photodiode sensor with a CIE-standard color correction filter, ensuring absolute accurate collection and analysis of light intensity in a wide measuring range up to 50,000 lux (divided into 3 measuring ranges).

Powerful parameter testing performance:

• Integrates a 4 to 20 mA analog output and control relays, supporting direct connection to external warning systems or data loggers for monitoring and data archiving.
• High accuracy, well meeting strict technical control requirements in working areas.

Intelligent operation and connection system:

• Fixed installation design: Consists of a wall-mounted or technical cabinet transmitter and flexible sensor probe, optimized for real-time continuous light monitoring.
• Stable power supply: Uses wide AC mains power (90 ~ 260 VAC) supplied to the signal transmitter, ensuring durable and continuous system operation.

Manufacturing materials and durable structure: The entire housing of the transmitter and probe is made from high-grade ABS plastic material, achieving IP54 protection standards for the transmitter, helping to maintain stability in workshop or laboratory environments.

Advanced safety operation mechanism: Designed according to modern industrial standards, properly controlling humidity and ambient temperature conditions, ensuring electrical safety and long-term accuracy.

Practical Applications

Thanks to its specialized design for continuous monitoring and integrated industrial signal outputs, the PCE LXT-TRM is widely applied in many fields:

• Laboratories & Optical Research: Closely monitoring and controlling lighting conditions in photography laboratories or light-sensitive testing areas.
• Food Production & Medical Industry: Continuously monitoring illumination levels at production and packaging lines for light-sensitive products (such as pharmaceuticals and special foods).
• Automation & Building Control: Connecting to central controllers or automated warning systems to maintain stable lighting standards in industrial environments.
