Room considerations
Sensor distance
The measurement method used in the LabSpion system is called far field, which means the distance
between the measuring light source and the sensor should be at least 8x the diameter of the lamp
as shown below.
Sensor distance = 8 x Lamp diameter
Lamp diameter Minimum sensor distance
0,25 m 2 m
0,50 m 4 m
1,00 m 8 m
1,50 m 12 m
Note !! The “Lamp diameter” is only the
illuminating part of the lamp.
