Product catalog summary
Advantages of Color Measurement
  • Good correlation with average visual color difference perception using 45°c:0° geometry.
  • Supports production documentation in compliance with ISO 9000 standards.
Special Advantages of ERX31
  • Provides excellent measurement results with a real spectral resolution of 1 nm.
  • Ensures good correlation of measurement results with visual perception under all illuminants.
  • Features a measurement area with a 10 mm diameter and positioning aid for small samples.
  • Portable use independent of the laboratory stand.
  • Offers excellent inter-instrument agreement with the previous ER 50 model.
  • More compact and lighter than the ER 50 model.
Functional Description of ERX31

The ERX31 is a compact spectrophotometer designed for spectral measurement with standardized 45° circular/0° geometry. It uses a Xenon flash lamp to illuminate samples and collects reflected light for high-resolution spectral analysis. The system includes automatic wavelength calibration for accuracy and stability, and it interfaces with a computer via USB.

Typical Applications

The ERX31 is suitable for high precision color measurement in various industries, particularly automotive, for items such as prototypes, panels, leather, plastic foils, buttons, covers, textiles, and carpets.

Technical Data
  • Measurement head features no moving parts, robust construction, and high accuracy.
  • Standardized measurement geometry: 45°c:0°.
  • Illuminant approximates D65, with a spectral measurement range from 330 nm to 730 nm.
  • Spectral resolution of 1 nm with absolute wavelength accuracy better than 0.1 nm.
  • Measurement time is 20 ms, with protection rated at IP 65 and CE mark.
  • Communication via USB, with ambient temperature up to 40°C.
  • Reproducibility and inter-instrument agreement are highly precise, with minimal color difference.
Additional Features
  • Includes quality control software and options for portable use.
  • Developed and produced in Germany, with a history of successful installations since 1987.

Functional description ERX31 The ERX31 is a compact, exact spectrophotometer for spectral measurement with the standardized geometry 45°circular / 0°. In both spectrometers the optical measurement signals will be separated into 401 different wavelength signals via corrected concave gratings and measured via photoelectric sensors (dispersed). Measurements are taken by an integrated photodiode line. The result is a true 1 nm spectral measurement resolution. The measurement signals will be amplified and digitized with high resolution. A fast processor calculates corrected spectral reflectance data....

Laboratory color measurement system ► Precise spectral color measurement The spectrophotometer ERX31 typically will be used in the laboratory with the laboratory stand EHX31 (see picture on front page), but also can be used mobile and hooked up by a 5 m cable. Even critical colors and demanding applications can be measured with high quality based on the excellent spectral resolution of 1 nm. The wide spectral range of the ERX31 from 330 nm to 730 nm gives excellent information. The sample illumination is similar to D65 and delivers very good measurement results in all wavelength ranges. ► Measurement...
