ColorLite sph850

The Spectrophotometer ColorLite sph850 is colour measuring instrument suitable for a wide range of applications. By using modern micro systems components the development of a device that is compact, easy to use, with an ideal price performance relationship was possible.
The probe head is, in comparison to other systems on the market where it is integrated into the device, connected via a flexible cable with the base unit. Hereby greatly improving the handling of the device.
The small diameter of the measuring spot (3.5 mm) also enables small and curved probes, such as cables and pens, to be scanned.

Applications:
  • Measurement and registration of colours of incoming and outgoing goods for QM-systems according to DIN EN ISO 9000
  • Objective quality control of colours within the production
  • Control of colour difference to a given standard

Delivery includes:
  • White standard with certificate from “Bundesanstalt f. Materialforschung”
  • Certificate of Conformity
  • Battery charger (110-240V, 50/60 Hz) with cradle
  • Rechargeable battery
  • RS 232-cable / USB adapter
  • Aluminium transport case with foam padding

Article-Nr.: 11041

Features:
  • Flexible external probe head and a small spot size (3.5 mm Ø) for the reliable scans on curved surfaces and small samples without the need for utilities
  • Real grating spectrometer with a sampling distance of 3.5 nm (equals 85 x 16-bit values per scan!)
  • Robust and durable light source – low maintenance and high reliability
  • Sprung probe head with automatic trigger, ideal for measuring soft samples such as leather and textiles
  • Simply exchangeable clip-on rechargeable battery guarantees a continuous operation
  • Non-volatile memory elements with the capacity of saving up to 1000 colour values, 100 colours with remission spectrum and 200 colour standards
  • Very easy 4-button operation and graphics display
  • Very good long-time repeatability
  • Real time clock provides time and date stamp for every sample
  • Newest micro controller technologies allow software updates via the Internet
  • Starting aid with interactive “Flash” operating manual and tutorial “Colour Basics”
