Full Spectrum Fluorescent Tubes

Accu-Tech® Full Spectrum fluorescents provides accurate color matching technology by simulating the full color and ultraviolet spectrum of natural outdoor light.

This extraordinary light is achieved by using rare phosphors which are blended in order to obtain the Accu-Tech color which produces a desirable Kelvin temperature and high Color-Rendering-Index.

Best of all the Accu-Tech Fluorescents are economically priced at a cost which is generally half the price of our competitors equivalent product.

Color Rendering Index (CRI) A key performance characteristic, color rendering, is the ability of the light source to represent colors in objects. The relative measure of this ability is color rendering index or CRI which rates the light sources on a scale of 0 to 100.

The higher the CRI, the more vibrant or close to natural the colors of objects appear. Natural daylight has been assigned a CRI of 100 at a Kelvin temperature of between 5000-7500K. The Spectralite performs at 90 CRI which produces excellent color rendition when color matching is critical.

Correlated Color Temperature(Kelvin), Color temperature or chromaticity refers to the color appearance of the light that comes from a light source. Also referred to as Correlated Color Temperature (CTT), the apparent color of light source is measured in Kelvin or "K".

Imagining a piece of iron (a horseshoe, for instance) in a fire can help you visualize color temperature in lamp types designated as "warm" or "cool". At first the iron becomes "red-hot". Red is the color of light be generated by the metal at a certain temperature. Continuing to heat the metal makes it "white-hot", and heating it further would cause it to become "blue-hot" (like flash bulbs or stars).

In describing color temperatures a low color temperature corresponds to a "warm" or a red yellow appearance like incandescent lamps at 2700 Kelvin. "Cool" light comes from light sources like cool white fluorescent lamps operating at 4100 Kelvin. The higher the Kelvin temperature, the whiter and then the bluer the light. In the case of the Spectralite at 5900 Kelvin this produces a color on the blue spectrum very close to natural daylight.

Lumen is the unit that expresses the total quantity of light given off by a source, regardless of direction. A lumen is defined as the amount of light falling on a surface of one square foot, every point which is one foot away from a source of one candlepower. A uniform source of one candlepower placed in a sphere emits 12.57 lumens.
