Footcandles and lux can be converted as follows:
1 footcandle = 10.76 lux
1 lux = 0.0929 footcandles
Light must be evaluated based upon the sensitivity
of the human eye in accordance with the interna-
tionally accepted definition for the spectral
response, V(
λ), of the human eye which is adjusted
to bright light. This response curve represents the
mean value which was determined based upon
tests conducted with a large number of persons.
The integrated silicon photodiode has been so well
matched to the spectral response of the human eye
through the use of filters, that it has achieved a rat-
ing of accuracy class C for MAVOLUX 5032C and
class B for MAVOLUX 5032B in accordance with
DIN 5032, part 7.
Additional details can be found in the DIN 5032
standard.
