Advanced Spectrocolorimeters: Precision and Versatility in Color Measurement

Product Description

The Spectrocolorimeters YR05516 and YR05517 are designed to provide exceptional accuracy and versatility for precise color measurements across a range of industries. Both models utilize D/8 optical geometry, featuring diffused illumination with an 8-degree viewing angle to ensure consistency in measurements. Compliant with international standards such as CIE No.15, ISO7724-1, and ASTM E1164, these spectrocolorimeters are engineered to meet rigorous quality requirements.

While the YR05516 offers dual apertures for increased adaptability, the YR05517 features a single aperture design. Both models are integrated with a full-spectrum LED light source with UV capabilities, allowing for comprehensive color assessment. These devices operate within a wavelength range of 400-700nm, at 10nm intervals, and boast a superior repeatability with the YR05516 achieving chromaticity values within ΔE*ab 0.05 and the YR05517 within ΔE*ab 0.06. Equipped with a silicon photodiode array sensor, these models promise rigorous performance in color measurement and quality control spanning industries like textiles, paints, ceramics, and more.
