Värilämpötilavalikoiman

Värilämpötilavalikoiman refers to the range of color temperatures that a light source can produce. Color temperature is a characteristic of visible light that describes the hue of the light emitted by an incandescent object. It is measured in Kelvin (K). Lower color temperatures, around 1800 K to 3000 K, are perceived as warm, often appearing yellowish or reddish. This type of lighting is commonly used in homes for creating a cozy and relaxing atmosphere, and in restaurants to enhance ambiance. As the color temperature increases, the light appears whiter. Temperatures between 3100 K and 4500 K are considered neutral or cool white, providing a more balanced and crisp illumination suitable for general lighting in offices and retail spaces. Higher color temperatures, typically above 4500 K and extending to 10000 K or more, are perceived as cool or daylight, with a bluish tint. This high color temperature lighting is often used in task-specific applications where high visibility and alertness are desired, such as in hospitals, laboratories, or for detailed work. The specific range and adjustability of a light source's color temperature capabilities define its värilämpötilavalikoiman. This feature is particularly relevant in modern lighting systems, such as LED lights, which often allow for tunable color temperatures to adapt to different times of day or specific user needs, influencing mood, productivity, and circadian rhythms.
