Larger integrating sphere: 1m diameter
 

The ISP 1000 integrating sphere from Instrument Systems features a diameter of 1000 mm and has been designed for accurate measurement of the total radiant power and luminous flux of LED modules, highpower LEDs, and lamps. Samples can be measured either from the side port, on a sample stage inside the sphere, or on the internal lamp post. The optical coating of the ISP 1000 consists of BaSO4 with approx. 97% reflection. A built-in PT-100 sensor allows monitoring of the internal temperature. The ISP1000 is mounted on a stable aluminium frame on rollers. Some of the features of this product include:

  • Universal sample stage for mounting LED modules
  • Optional lamp post to be mounted in hanging or upright position
  • 300 mm side port for mounting LED adapters and modules
  • integrated auxiliary light source

New telescope probe: completely integrated with software
 

The TOP200 telescope optical probe allows the determination of luminance and spectral radiance as well as color analysis of light sources and illuminated surfaces. Applications range from the testing of displays and screens, reflecting and transparent objects to retroreflectors in the field of traffic technology. A selection of lenses can be quickly and securely mounted to the bayonet coupling. An internal viewfinder camera images the lens field of view plus the exact measurement spot area. Spot sizes down to 0.08mm are ideal to measure fine structures of automotive / aircraft panels and switches.

  • 80µm smallest spot with HRL90
  • Pritchard optics with only 15° tilted aperture mirror provide perfectly round and sharp measurement spot
  • Measurement spot decoupled from the entrance slit / band pass function
  • Polarization error <0.4%
  • Collision protection for positioner systems with HRL90
  • Self identification; the correct calibration file can automatically be selected
  • Status LED
  • The TOP200 is compatible with all IS spectroradiometers working with SpecWin Pro. The TOP200-101 body together with SpecWin Pro is available as an up-grade package for existing DTS systems.
  • Target illumination is provided through a gooseneck mounted LED spot light illumination
  • Fully compatible with all existing systems (DTS500, DTS320, DTS140)

New spectral software
 

Although it has a similar name to its predecessor, don't be fooled: SpecWin Pro is a completely new software platform for spectrometers from Instrument Systems. It is a sophisticated approach to instrument control and user interface that you will appreciate right from the beginning. Specwin Pro is available now for some applications and will be extended to all applications and spectrometers over the next 12 months. Some features:

  • 32Bit Software runs with Win2000/WindowsXP/Windows Vista 32bit
  • Easy to use Measurement series table
  • Pass/Fail Monitor for all parameters including user defined color regions
  • Safe operation with password secured User/Superuser Modes
  • Supports new TOP200 functionalities
  • Faster Measurements with DC-array and improved timing
  • Scotopic evaluation of the spectrum

    Company News

    Instrument Systems is now Silver Supportive Member of CIE

    Instrument Systems GmbH has been appointed a Silver Supportive Member by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) and will continue its significant contribution to the development of CIE standards and recommendations.

    Founder and President of Instruments Systems GmbH, Richard Distl, reflects that "since the early 1990s we've played a key role at the CIE in drawing up metrological conventions for the optical assessment of LEDs (for example publication of CIE 127 for ILEDA and ILEDB luminous intensity of LEDs)." Distl continued: "These measuring recommendations are recognized across the world. The task now is to expand them to cover the high-brightness and high-power LEDs that are rapidly gaining importance."

    Upcoming Shows and Exhibitions

    These are the shows we are tentatively planning to attend. We would be pleased to arrange meetings in and around these show dates. If possible, please call in advance to arrange this to ensure that time is set aside and that the appropriate measurement instrument/accessories are brought.
