Correlated Color Temperature
The correlated color temperature measures light source color appearance defined by the proximity to the blackbody locus as one number. This single measurement can be used instead of or in addition to two measurements required for chromaticity coordinates.
Color Rendering Index
CRI is a mathematically calculated value that measures how well an object’s color will be reproduced against the reference illuminant.
Illuminance
The total luminous flux incident on a surface.
Lumens
SI unit of luminous flux equal to one candela/steradian
Luminaire
A complete electrical lighting unit including electrical parts and wiring.
Lux
SI unit equal to one lumen/m2
Facility Security Assessment and Authorization
The process of reviewing and validating the facility security components at each stage of a project.
Uniformity Ratio
The ratio of the minimum lux reading over the average of all lux readings. A measure of the uniformity of illumination.
Uninterruptible Power Supply
An electrical apparatus that provides emergency power to a load when the primary power source fails (for security lighting, as an example). They may use batteries or a flywheel as the emergency power source.
Senstar LM100: Perimeter Intrusion Detection and Deterrence System
Combining two key security functions in one cutting-edge product, the Senstar LM100 acts as a powerful deterrent against intruders, detecting and illuminating them at the fence line while alerting the site’s security system.
