Sekonic C-7000 Handheld Spectrometer for LED & Lighting Measurement
The Sekonic C-7000 handheld spectrometer measures light spectrum, illuminance, colour temperature and colour rendering for professional lighting evaluation. Compare LED and other light sources using one portable instrument.
- Spectral measurement: 380 to 780 nm.
- Lighting analysis: CRI, chromaticity and PPFD, with expanded colour metrics available on supported firmware.
- Data handling: Store measurements and export spectral data through C-7000 Utility software.
Choose lighting with measured evidence. The Sekonic C-7000, also known as the SPECTROMASTER C-7000, is a handheld spectrometer for evaluating LED, HMI, fluorescent, tungsten, daylight and electronic flash sources.
For lighting procurement, product comparison or installation checks, start by defining the result you need to verify: illumination at a work surface, consistency between fittings, colour rendering or the spectral characteristics of a light source.

What Should You Check When Comparing Lights?
A useful comparison needs a consistent test setup. Record the measurement position, distance, lamp settings and surrounding light conditions so differences can be interpreted properly.
| Buying or testing question | What to review |
|---|---|
| Does the installation provide the required light level? | Compare illuminance readings at defined measurement locations against the project specification. |
| Do replacement lamps match the existing lighting? | Review colour temperature and chromaticity under the same measurement conditions. |
| How should competing LED products be compared? | Define acceptance criteria for colour rendering and spectral characteristics before testing samples. |
| What information is needed for horticultural lighting? | Specify the required PPFD measurement locations and the intended lighting arrangement. |

Planning Your Lighting Measurements
LED Product Evaluation
When comparing supplier samples, agree on the operating settings and measurement geometry first. Keep a record of the sample reference and test conditions alongside each result, particularly when comparing different batches or replacement products.
Lighting Installation Checks
For a showroom, office, retail space or other installation, prepare a measurement plan showing the locations to be checked. Include the relevant project requirements so the results answer a clear acceptance question.
Research and Development
Before selecting a meter for a test procedure, list the required parameters, expected light levels and reporting format. Confirm that the instrument's range and available functions match the intended method.
Application Illustrations
Preparing Results for Review
Decide how measurements will be named and organised before starting a comparison. A useful record identifies the light source, location, operating conditions and acceptance criteria, making it easier to review results with colleagues or suppliers.
If computer-based reporting is required, include your operating system and required output format in the enquiry so software compatibility can be checked.
