Chauvin Arnoux CA1110 Light Meter
The Chauvin Arnoux CA1110 Light Meter provides fast and reliable light level measurements for surveys, maintenance checks, and lighting upgrades. It measures illuminance across a wide range while maintaining stable results in real environments. Because the sensor is remote, users can place it exactly where light falls without blocking it with their hands.
Clear readings appear on a large backlit display, which helps when working in dim plant rooms, corridors, or ceiling spaces. In addition, the meter allows quick switching between lux and foot-candles so results can match different lighting standards. The Chauvin Arnoux CA1110 Light Meter also stores key readings with MAX, MIN, AVG, and HOLD functions during adjustments.
Flexible measurement control
Accurate readings depend on correct sensor placement, and the detachable probe makes this simple. Position the sensor directly on desks, floors, or work surfaces while the main unit stays in hand or mounted nearby. As a result, the Chauvin Arnoux CA1110 Light Meter records lighting conditions without shading the lens.
Logging and reporting tools
Large internal memory stores up to one million measurements with time and date information. MAP mode also allows users to create a grid of readings across a room or corridor. After the survey, transfer data through USB or Bluetooth to a computer and produce quick reports using the supplied software.
Long battery life supports extended surveys without interruption, even when logging data for long periods. A robust housing and flexible mounting options make the instrument suitable for routine site use. Consequently, the Chauvin Arnoux CA1110 Light Meter helps confirm lighting compliance and document results clearly.
