Basic Accuracy
±3% of reading + 0.5% full scale
Peak Hold
Captures light pulses to 100 µs
Fits higher-accuracy illuminance surveys where you need an Extech EA30 with up to 40,000 Fc / 400,000 Lux, ±3% of reading + 0.5% FS accuracy, and peak hold capturing pulses to 100 µs.
Key advantages
- Ranges — Fc: 40/400/4000/40,000; Lux: 40–400,000 (5 ranges)
- Accuracy — ±3% of reading + 0.5% full scale
- Peak hold — Captures light pulses to 100 µs
- Sensor — CIE photopic cosine/color corrected
- Display / power — 3999 count + 42-segment bargraph; 6× AAA; ~400 h
Typical applications
- Workplace lighting compliance checks.
- Peak pulse lighting capture.
- Fc/Lux multi-range surveys.
Selection guide
- Fc vs Lux ranges
- Peak hold — Pulse lighting needs
- Accuracy class — ±3% vs LT300 ±5% class
- Power — AAA life ~400 h
Common mistakes
- Sensor angle errors without cosine awareness.
- Comparing peak pulses without 100 µs context.
- Wrong range causing overload.
When to RFQ / what to tell us
