Revolutionary Spectrocolorimeter: Key Features and Innovations

Description of the Product

The Spectrocolorimeter models YR05516 and YR05517 are at the forefront of color measurement technology, offering unparalleled precision and adaptability in various industries. Both models boast a sophisticated optical geometry with D/8 diffused illumination, enabling an 8-degree viewing angle, and they operate in both SCI (Specular Component Included) and SCE (Specular Component Excluded) modes. These instruments comply with international standards such as CIE No.15, ISO7724-1, and ASTM E1164, ensuring accuracy and reliability.

The YR05516 features double apertures for enhanced adaptability and is engineered for precise color measurement and quality control across numerous industries, including plastic electronics, paint and ink manufacturing, textile printing, and ceramics. On the other hand, the YR05517 model, with its single aperture design, offers similar versatility and is especially suitable for scenarios requiring consistent color quality assurance.

Both spectrocolorimeters are equipped with an integrating sphere size of Φ40mm, a combined full-spectrum LED light source, and advanced sensor technology, utilizing a silicon photodiode array for detailed spectrophotometric analyses. Their extensive wavelength range (400~700nm) and precise 10nm wavelength interval facilitate highly detailed and accurate color readings.
