Product Description
The Grating Spectrophotometer Model YR05493 stands out as a sophisticated tool designed for precise color measurement and quality control. This device is engineered with advanced optical geometry of D/8, facilitating diffused illumination and an 8-degree viewing angle. Its capability to include or exclude the specular component (SCI/SCE) and UV light source aligns with multiple international standards, ensuring accurate and reliable results.
This spectrophotometer excels in delivering detailed color analysis and transmission in laboratories across a multitude of industries, including plastics, electronics, textiles, and ceramics. The integrating sphere is sized at Φ40mm, utilizing a combined full spectrum LED and UV light source to optimize the measurement process. Featuring a flat grating spectrophotometric mode and a silicon photodiode array sensor with double row 40 groups, this model covers a wavelength range of 400-700 nm with a 10 nm interval and semiband width.
The device can measure reflectance within the range of 0-200%, accommodating three distinct measuring apertures: MAV (Φ8mm/Φ10mm), SAV (Φ4mm/Φ5mm), and LAV (1x3mm), the latter offering slightly reduced accuracy suitable for color tests. The inclusion of multiple color spaces such as CIE LAB, XYZ, LCh, and others, alongside color difference formulas like ΔE*ab and ΔE*94, confirms its adaptability for nuanced color comparisons.
