Product Description
The YR05491 Multi-Angle Spectrophotometer is a cutting-edge instrument designed for precision color measurement, catering to industries that demand an accurate and consistent evaluation of metallic, pearlescent, and other complex special effect color products. This advanced spectrophotometer stands out with its unique measurement geometry, featuring eight measurement angles using six illumination sources and two receivers. This allows for an unparalleled multidimensional assessment of color, ensuring every nuance is captured.
Central to its functionality is the full-spectrum LED light source with blue enhancement, providing high-quality illumination crucial for precise color evaluations. Its robust design encompasses a concave grating spectrophotometric mode and a high-resolution 256 Image Element Double Array CMOS Image Sensor. With a wavelength range spanning from 400nm to 700nm and a wavelength interval and semiband width of 10nm, it ensures detailed spectral data capture.
The versatility of the YR05491 is further highlighted by its expansive color space support, including CIE LAB, XYZ, Yxy, LCh, βxy, and DIN Lab99. This level of functionality is complemented by various color difference formulas such as ΔE*ab, ΔE*94, and ΔE*00, enabling users to identify and quantify even the most subtle variations in color. The device also measures additional colorimetric indices like Flop Index and Int-Em, providing a comprehensive toolkit for detailed color analysis.
