TS8216 Color Measuring Instrument

The benchtop color spectrophotometer TS8216 is a color photospectrometer developed by 3nh using its own core technology of spectroscopy. It uses a dual-array CMOS image sensor with higher sensitivity and a wider spectral response range, and the test is more accurate. The repeatability ΔE*ab of the TS8216 benchtop photospectrometer is easily controlled within 0.01, and the inter-instrument errorΔE*ab is controlled within 0.25. The data is stable and reliable, and can be used for accurate color analysis and transmission in the laboratory.

The TS8216 measurement instrument can achieve precise color consistency in design inspiration, formulation, production, and quality control. The multi-aperture design of this integrating sphere benchtop spectrophotometer enables it to measure complex samples, supporting both reflection and transmission measurements. It can perform rapid, simultaneous SPIN/SPEX measurements to determine the gloss level of samples. Additionally, the product is equipped with a digital label that includes device status, sample images, and measurement parameters for each sample measurement. Its multi-aperture design allows for measuring complex samples and supports both reflection and transmission measurements.

Color Measurement for Solids and Liquids

Every lab needs to be multifunctional, and a single, integrated color measurement system for both solids and liquids is a step toward greater functionality.

For a spectrophotometer, whether the high or low value specimens are milk, coatings, beverages, or plastics, being able to change sample types and still get consistent, repeatable, and reliable results is a trait of high value colorimeters.

Benchtop Spectrophotometer – Color Testing Tool 

A Benchtop Spectrophotometer is a laboratory instrument used to measure the color intensity of a substance. It is also known as a color photometer or color spectrophotometer. This measuring instrument is crucial in the industrial world because it helps produce products with consistent color.

Benchtop colorimeters are widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, textile, and chemical industries. In the food industry, they are used to ensure color consistency in food products, such as beverages, candies, and biscuits. In the pharmaceutical industry, colorimeters are used to test the color stability of drugs and supplements, as well as to ensure that drug quality meets established standards. In the cosmetics industry, colorimeters are used to measure the color of cosmetics and ensure that they meet standards and do not change over time. In the textile industry, colorimeters are used to measure the color of fabrics and ensure that they are consistent and meet standards.

To keep the light box calibrated and to ensure accurate and steady lighting, clean the inside, replace the lamps when needed, check the calibration and record the hours use

a. It’s needed to perform manual calibration for NH300 when first starting.

b. In the subsequent starting, no need to perform manual calibration.

c. Suggestion: it’s best to perform manual calibration once a week or when NH300 measured data is not accurate.

Gloss levels are usually of five types, namely, matte, eggshell, satin, semi-gloss, and high gloss. These categories are of rising levels of reflectivity of the surface and are utilized to characterize the completion of paints, coatings, and other substances.
