ERCO | www.erco.com Product: Color Compensation

A new technology for ERCO’s LED varychrome luminaires, Color Compensation allows designers to produce exactly the same hue of light from all fixtures of the same type. To ensure precise and consistent color, the luminous flux and dominant wavelength of each color-compensated luminaire are measured and adjusted individually, then compared to prescribed specific values. Based on this comparison, compensation factors are calculated and permanently stored in each control gear unit and identified on each fixture label.
