The YE0223 is designed for evaluation of the halftone reproduction of electronic cameras. Two 13-graduated counter current gray scales are arranged on a gray background (D = 0.75), the gray scales being graduated logarithmically. Related to the densities of the gray scales: gamma = 0.45, related to the transmission values (brightness): gamma = 2.2, that being exactly the reciprocal value of gamma = 0.45. The output signal of a optimally gamma-corrected camera yields two 13-gratuated counter current linear step signals.

The contrast range of the gray scales is 200 : 1.

The values of the 11-graduated gray scale are as follows:

 
Step Density Reflectance in %
1 0.05 89
2 0.13 74
3 0.21 62
4 0.30 50
5 0.40 40
6 0.51 31
7 0.63 23
8 0.78 17
9 0.95 11
10 1.15 7
11 1.41 4
12 1.77 2
13 2.35 0.5
 

The density of the white field between the gray scale is D = 0.05 (reflectance = 89 %).

FAQs About  Grayscale Charts

When evaluating the accuracy of a colorimeter, repeatability is a key parameter. 

The repeatability standard deviation ΔE*ab of 3nh colorimeters is within 0.03 (measured under the following conditions: after preheating and calibration, measure the white calibration tile 30 times at 3-second intervals and take the average). This figure is superior to all other similar color measurement instruments. 

Each of our instruments undergoes rigorous factory inspection and calibration before delivery. In addition, 3nh colorimeters are guaranteed to pass the metrological certification issued by official metrology institutes.

A Spectrophotometer color measuring device objectively determines the color of a surface. It is used wherever accurate color matching, reproducibility or deviation control is needed – for example in quality assurance, product development or incoming goods inspection.

Spectrophotometer color measuring devices primarily perform three key tasks:

Capture color information: They detect light reflected, transmitted, or emitted by a sample using optical sensors.
Quantify color data: They convert the captured optical signals into standardized numerical values, such as RGB, CMYK, or CIELAB coordinates.
Compare color consistency: They compare the measured color data of a sample against a target or standard to assess color accuracy and uniformity.


Lightbooths come in different dimensions. A typical tabletop model occupies 0.5-1 m². The bigger industrial variants take up 2-4 m².  If you have special requirements, we can customize the product according to your size


You can choose a colorimters depending on the substrate you are measuring the color of, whether it is opaque, translucent or transparent. In short, you can consider the following factors for choosing the right 3NH colorimeter for your needs: Sample Opacity, Physical Form, Optical Properties needed, Measurement Methods required, Scales and Indices needed, Instrument Standards Conformance (ASTM/ISO/Other), Instrument Geometry, Instrument Performance, Location (laboratory, portability, in-process) and Sample Handling requirements.

By systematically addressing these factors, you can select a colorimeter that optimizes accuracy, efficiency, and value for your specific application.Learn more from our ultimate guide on colorimeter selection. If unsure, consult the 3NH manufacturer for personalized recommendations based on your sample and workflow.


Accurate readings can be obtained by keeping the sample clean, regular calibration, control of ambient light and appropriate measurement settings.

The measurement of color varies according to context in several units. Such common units are L*a*b* (CIELAB), RGB (Red-Green-Blue), and color difference (Delta E). In light absorption, there are no units assigned to absorbance. But the quantitative analysis of absorbance obeys Beer's Law in colorimetry.
