Colour Measurement Principles How and why? When we measure colours we are measuring a sensorial perception , its like measuring taste or odour. By measuring colours the subjectivity of the perceived colour, or more importantly colour difference, is replaced by objective values. As the human colour visual system is based on three receptors, each with a different spectral sensitivity, colours can always be described by three values. The perceived colour is also dependent on the ambient light, which is a further variable affecting the colour. Another variable is the field of view, when looking at...

We offer you a complete solution One of the key features of the ColorLite sph870/900 spectrophotometers is the ability to extend applications through the use of a wide range of available accessories. The ColorLite sph870 and sph900 spectrophotometers are available with different types of probe head for different applications. Our accessory range is used to extend the application fields of your device and with the d/8° probe head adapter, ensure that results are compatible to all your customers or suppliers. Our unique small external standard 45°/0° probe head ColorDaTra Basic + Professional PC...

User friendly and flexible The Spectrophotometers ColorLite sph900 and sph870 are a colour measuring instrument suitable for a wide range of applications, especially through the package of accessories on offer. The sph900 has all of the user friendly qualities and advantages of the sph860 but with up to date features such as Bluetooth interface and a high resolution O-LED display. Not only does this high resolution display offer brilliant full colour contrast, but makes operating much easier as more information is displayed. The sph900 has high speed electronics enabling measuring time of less...

One device with all main geometries Using supplementary accessories the sph870 and sph900 offers you the unique option of implementing different measurement geometries with one device. Apart from the two main probe head standards 45°/0° and d/8° the equipment can be used for transmission measurements in 0°/0° or d/0° mode. To measure inhomogeneous surfaces like granules or wood a adapter is available to expand the scanning to 38 mm or 80 mm. State of the art technoloy All the sph900 adapters using an auxiliary light source are controlled from the main unit over a smart interface. This recognises...

External stainless steel probe head The unique stainless steel probe head, only 25 mm in diameter, provides the perfect interface between the sample and instrument ensuring the most reliable results possible. Hold your sample in one hand and simply press the sprung probe head onto the surface to trigger the scan. High contrast colour O-LED display Super high contrast O-LED full colour display, provides the perfect interface between the instrument and user ensuring very simple handling, reducing training time and increasing reliability. The 180° viewing angle of the O-LED display works without...

Two main geometries in one device 45°/0° AND d/8° The two main geometries in use today are the 45°/0° and the d/8° geometry described in DIN 5033. The normal 45°/0° geometry of the ColorLite sph900/sph860 can be easily converted to a d/8°, using our optional accessory MA35-UK. High optical resolution of 3.5 nm steps One hundred and fifteen (115) 16-Bit spectral values are measured for each scan, using a highly robust optical grating and Hamamatsu line sensor. This ensures a good correlation, even with elaborate desktop spectrophotometers. Many spectrophotometers on the market measure only 30...

FRAM memory chips – no batteries needed The high performance „Ferroelectric Random Access Memory“ chips have an operating life of at least 100 000 billion write operations and a data retention of 10 years. This ensures that no data or standards are lost. With no backup battery needed. Possible by using one of the most advanced memory chips technologies available. Spectrometer mode - optional In this mode the unit can be used as a normal mobile spectrometer i.e. measure the spectral radiation (in 3.5 nm steps) and chromaticity values of any light source for example such as LED’s. To do this we...

Further features include - storage for 1000 colour samples storage for 300 spectra 400 nm to 700 nm in 3.5 nm steps different probe head versions available multiple scanning with automatic averaging of 1 to 20 scans Warning messages - when the standard deviation threshold (0.01 to 2) is exceeded by multiple scans when the Metameric Index higher is as a variable limit for time dependent calibration warning 1 h to 24 hours for temperature dependent calibration warning 0 to 9 when a high colour difference between the standard and the sample is measured when the samples are measured in a different...
