More Information

BYK Gardner Color-Guide Sphere Portable Spectrophotometer Overview

Features:

  • Excellent Long Term and Short Term Stability
  • Input of Tolerances Allows Quick Pass/Fail Decision
  • Sphere and 45/0 Geometries
The BYK Gardner Color-Guide Sphere Portable Spectrophotometer is used to ensure consistent quality in incoming and outgoing QC, in on-site process control. It is operated with batteries to meet the increasing demand for in-field measurements. The measurement principle is based on the measurement of spectral reflectance within the visable spectrum of wavelengths from 400-700 nm. Two measurement geometries are provided: 45/0 and d/8 (with or without specular gloss). With 45/0, illumination occurs in a circular pattern at an angle of 45°, while the observation angle is 0°. With d/8, light falls on the sample in a diffuse manner, while the observation angle is 8° "from the vertical." the instrument color guide gloss measures color (d/8) and 60° simultaneously. The sample is illuminated by light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with high lifetime expectation. LEDs do not warm the sample, so there is no risk of thermochromic effects caused by illumination.

The BYK Gardner Color-Guide Sphere Portable Spectrophotometer may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
