10.1 Notes on the pixel fault class
Unless indicated to the contrary, all the flat screens supplied by Caratec GmbH comply with Class 0.
In case of flat screens pixel defects occur related to technology and production. A 22" display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels e.g. consists of more than 2 million individual screen cells controlled by tiny transistors. With such a tremendous number it is possible that in spite of highest quality standards one or several individual cells are not perfectly functioning, and are permanently switched on or off. Then, the outcome are continuously shining or continuously black pixels on the screen.
In this respect, the ISO standard 9241-307 defines quality classes providing transparency with respect to warranty claims of final customers, retailers and wholesalers against the manufacturers. With the commitment to an ISO defect class, the monitor manufacturers undertake to comply with the corresponding standard for serial production. In this, the pixel defect classes are guided by the number of pixel defects and by the specific defect type, as explained in the following table.
| Defect class Fault type 1Defective pixelAlways on | Fault type 2Defective pixelAlways black | Fault type 3Defective sub-pixelAlways on | Fault type 3Defective sub-pixelAlways black |
| 0 0 0 0 0 | |||
| I 1 1 2 2 | |||
| II 2 2 5 2 | |||
| III 5 15 Up to 50 | |||
| IV 50 150 Up to | 500 | ||
The pixel defect number is defined each time per 1 million pixels.
Explanation:
A continuously shining pixel (defect type 1) is more disturbing for thee user than a continuously black pixel (defect class 2). The least evident is, if only one subpixel is defective, and shines in one of the three colours red, green or blue, or is black (defect class 3).
Because of these differences also the respective accepted number of defects of the three defect types is different, e.g. in class II.
