The Novo-Shade Duo+ Reflectometer • Opacity • Shade • Cleanliness Manufactured by Rhopoint Instruments in the United Kingdom

A versatile solution for reflectometry measurement The Novo-Shade Duo+ is a portable 45/0° reflectometer that can be used to assess either the shade of a surface (a simple indication of colour based on lightness/darkness) or calculate the opacity of a coating, plastic film or paper sample. By measuring using 45/0°, the NovoShade Duo+ measures the colour of a surface and not the specular reflectance (gloss). The Novo-Shade Duo+ reflectometer has 3 distinct modes of operation. In shade mode, applications include the measurement of colour, fading in textiles and plastics, shade of paints, inks and...

Shade mode To measure the shade of a coating simply place the instrument on the surface of the sample to be measured and press the centre button. The value is displayed on the screen. The shade measurement is based on a greyscale value where black has a value of zero and white is the value of the calibration standard included with the instrument.

Opacity mode To measure the opacity of a coating, it must be drawn down on a Leneta-type opacity chart at the required film weight and allowed to fully dry. To measure the opacity of plastic film, paper, textile or any other semi-opaque material, the sample to be measured should be placed over a black and white test bed, a Leneta-type chart is also suggested. Fast measurement of all parameters Automatic calculation of opacity Opacity MENU On-board statistics Measurements are made over a white substrate and then over a black substrate. Opacity is automatically calculated and displayed. Hiding...

To measure cleanliness, clear tape is used to collect debris from the surface under test. This is then stuck to anysuitable white substrate along with a sample of tape that is perfectly clean.
