Photometric Measurements and Calibrations Reliably

/ SERVICES / PHOTOMETRIC LABORATORY

SSL Resource Ltd provides photometric measurement services for general lighting fixtures, signal lights, optical materials and detectors in its own photometric laboratory using measurement systems that have been mainly developed in-house. Therefore we can if necessary adapt our facility and service to our customers' requirements. Our measurement facility has been verified with the comparison measurements at Finnish and Netherlands measurement standard laboratories.
