The SP64 Portable Sphere Spectrophotometer is a versatile instrument designed to provide fast, precise color measurement information on a wide range of materials, such as paper, paint, plastics, and textiles. Absolute and difference measurements are obtained for the following colorimetric systems: CIE XYZ, CIE Yxy, CIE L*a*b*, Hunter Lab, CIE L*c*h?, CMC, CIE94, Whiteness and Yellowness per ASTM E313-98, Metamerism Index and DIN 6172 + AATCC Gray Scale. # Versatile, use for lab, plant or field operation. # Easy to read, large graphical LCD display. # Permits quick measurement and comparison of two colors without need to create tolerances or store data. # Multiple color standards can be collected under an identified project as part of corporate color standards programs. # A programmed sequence of specific steps guides an operator through a color measurement process, assuring consistency. # The internal apertures can be quickly changed with the flip of the switch for 4mm to 8mm aperture sizes. # Up to 1,024 standards with tolerances can be stored for easy pass/fail measurement. # Superior agreement capabilities ensures integrity of multiple-instrument color control. # Device measures opacity, color strength in chromatic, apparent, and tri-stimulus calculations, and 555 shade sorting for precise color control of products involving plastic, painted, or textile materials. # Simultaneous measurement of both specular-included (color) and specular-excluded (appearance) enabled to determine the influence of the specular component. # A wrist strap and tactile side grips facilitate holding and a flip back target shoe adds flexibility. # Rechargeable battery allows for remote use.
