Product Description
The **Multi-Angle Spectrophotometer YR05488** is an advanced instrument precisely designed to cater to the complex needs of color measurement, especially for metallic, pearlescent, and other special effect colors. This state-of-the-art device boasts a geometry of three measurement angles using three illumination sources and a single receiver, making it compliant with esteemed global standards such as ASTM, DIN, ISO, and SAE.
With a full spectrum LED light source enhanced by blue light, the spectrophotometer promises an impressive lamp life of five years or an equivalent of three million measurements. It features a concave grating spectrophotometric mode, coupled with a 256 image element double array CMOS image sensor, capturing a wavelength range from 400nm to 700nm, with a 10nm interval. Its measurement prowess extends over a range of 0~600%, featuring a semiband width and measuring aperture of 10nm and Φ12mm, respectively.
The device covers a versatile color space featuring CIE LAB, XYZ, Yxy, LCh, βxy, and DIN Lab99, ensuring accurate representation and differentiation of colors using advanced color difference formulas such as ΔE*ab, ΔE*94, and ΔE*00 among others. The precision is further augmented by a 2°/10° observer angle and multiple illuminants including D65, A, C, among others, ensuring consistent and reliable results across diverse environments.
Engineered for user convenience, the spectrophotometer includes a 3.5-inch TFT color LCD with capacitive touch screen, allowing easy navigation of spectrograms, chromaticity values, and color difference values. Data is securely stored with a capacity for 1000 standards and 4000 samples, facilitating detailed analysis and review.
