How to replace the VeriVide CIE D65 PAV Lamp
In 2020 the ISO made changes to the EN ISO 12945 standards
specifying that the PAV unit must be:
- Illuminated using artficial daylight D65 lamps – in accordance
with ISO 3668 that specifies a CIE D65 light source must be
used. - And have a brightness of at least 600 lux to give a uniform
illumination over the surface of the viewing apparatus.
To meet the requirements, VeriVide developed its own true CIE rated
D65 lamp. These are available directly from VeriVide or through our
Official distributors.
It’s important for customers to check what lamps they are currently
using and update to the latest lamp requirements as soon as possible
to ensure test standards are met.
