Precision digital lux meter 0–99,990 lux with 180° rotating probe

SKU 6080-FSFPM02Brand: FNIRSIProduct type: Environmental & research instruments

Description

Portable 3-in-1 digital lux meter with a 0–99,990 lux range and ±(3%+5 lux) accuracy: it measures illuminance and, on the same 2″ colour display, temperature and humidity as well. 180° rotating probe, auto-range, lux/foot-candle switching, curve logging, threshold alarms and HOLD function for professional measurements in the laboratory, in maintenance and in lighting checks.

The FSFPM02 is a portable digital lux meter that measures the illuminance of a room accurately. It is used by professionals and by makers in the laboratory alike. The silicon sensor gives stable readings from a few lux up to 99,990 lux, with an accuracy of ±(3%+5 lux) on a 2854 K source.

3-in-1 digital lux meter: light, temperature and humidity

Besides light, the instrument also measures temperature and relative humidity, showing every value on the same 2 inch colour display. The probe turns through 180°, so you can aim it at the light source and still choose the most comfortable position for reading the screen.

The instrument sets itself to the most suitable range among 1,000, 9,999 and 99,990 lux, or it can be set manually. You can switch from lux to foot-candle to suit any job.

Useful functions in the field

The HOLD function freezes the value on the display. The curve page, on the other hand, shows how the light changes over time and refreshes every half second. Minimum and maximum alarm thresholds can be set.

When a threshold is crossed the instrument warns with light, sound and vibration. It also stores up to 30 events with date, time and type. The internal battery recharges over USB Type-C.

Where to use the digital lux meter

In the field the instrument checks the lighting of offices, schools, warehouses and production areas. It also helps assess scene lighting in photography and video. It is useful when commissioning installations and, above all, when setting light levels for indoor growing.

The instrument is compact and easy to handle, with an adjustable lux probe and a 2 inch colour display. It shows light, temperature and humidity at the same time. The sturdy housing and the dedicated keys make it easy to use in the laboratory and in the field.


Wide measuring range up to 99,990 lux

Three automatic ranges (1,000, 9,999 and 99,990 lux) cover everything from half-light to direct sunlight, with a resolution down to 0.1 lux. The auto-range picks the right scale on its own, so no manual adjustment is needed.


180° rotating probe for any angle

The sensor head turns through 180°, so the probe can be aimed at the light while the display stays easy to read. That makes it ideal for measuring on worktops, shelving and sloping surfaces.


High-readability colour TFT display

The backlit screen shows light, temperature and humidity in real time, with large, clear characters. The settings also let you choose a light or dark theme and adjust the brightness for any lighting condition.


High-sensitivity silicon photosensor probe

The silicon sensor uses a spectral and cosine correction filter, so the readings stay stable and accurate. The instrument samples twice a second and follows even rapid changes in the light.


3-in-1 measurement: light, temperature and humidity

Overview of the FSFPM02 light meter's features

A single instrument reads illuminance and ambient conditions. The HOLD function freezes the reading, while the curve page shows the trend over time, and the threshold alarms warn with light, sound and vibration.


Many fields of use

Examples of the FSFPM02 light meter in use in different settings

The instrument suits offices, schools, warehouses and production areas. It is also useful in photography and video and when commissioning installations. Finally, it helps set light levels for indoor growing.


Compact, portable and rechargeable over USB-C
