The colorCONTROL MFA is used for flexible color inspections and intensity testing of LEDs, displays and colored objects. The flexible positioning of the sensors in relation to the objects, as well as their high repeatability, measuring rates and dynamics are particularly favorable. One colorCONTROL MFA monitors up to 28 test objects simultaneously.

Sensors

Operating the colorSENSOR MFA controller requires sensors that are used on the measuring point. The sensors reliably detect small light spots from 3 mm and can be individually combined depending on the measurement task. The high-quality receiver sensors with plastic fiber optics are particularly characterized by their small installation dimensions. This enables highly accurate testing at different points for individually arranged test specimens. The sensor portfolio covers a wide range of working distances and spot sizes. Other versions in different lengths and temperature ranges are available as options.

What is the measuring principle for relative color measurement testing?

The measuring system for relative color measurement testing consists of an evaluation unit, the MFA-XX controller and a MFS sensor.

The sensor is connected to the controller via an optical fiber with an integrated plastic fiber. The specimen (lighting/LED) emits electromagnetic radiation with the range of 400-700 nm (light). The light emitted from the test subject is received via an MFS sensor at a working distance of approx. 5 mm. The light is transmitted via the optical fiber of the MFS sensor to a perceptive true-color sensor (XYZ) of the MFA controller.

The three wavelength frequency ranges, i.e.

X = long wave
Y = medium wave
Z = short wave frequency ranges

from the specimen are used to determine the light emitted thereby and transformed into a selected color space. These color values are calculated according to the procedure described in DIN 5033. The transformed values (color) can be queried by the controller or continuously transmitted via the interface.
