The 3nh NS Series Spectrophotometers offer precise color measurement with advanced features in an ergonomic design.
Adhering to CIE, ISO, ASTM, and DIN standards, these devices utilize a 45/0 geometrical optics structure and an oversized integrating sphere for accurate, repeatable results. The 3.5-inch capacitive touch screen and 15° oblique angle provide intuitive and comfortable operation.
With a high repeatability ΔE*ab within 0.04 and minimal inter-instrument error of less than 0.2, these spectrophotometers excel in precision. They support two standard observer perspectives, multiple light source modes, and various color systems. With a storage capacity for over 10,000 data points and robust PC software, the NS Series combines innovative hardware with powerful functionality for comprehensive color analysis.
With the included SQC8 color management PC software, you can improve your color control management. This instrument is widely used in plastic, electronic, paint, ink, textile, garment, printing and dyeing, food, medical, cosmetic, industries, scientific research institutes, schools and laboratories.
NS800 handheld color spectrophotometer can not only help perform color matching and color management studies, but also can control product quality management accurately.
NS810 portable spectrophotometer uses d/8 structure and comply with CIE No.15, GB/T 3978. With 400~700nm, NS810 features with high accuracy DeltaE*ab 0.04, and 8mm aperture makes measurement so easy.
NS820 small aperture spectrophotometer has the same specifications as the NS810 spectrophotometer, but it adopts 4mm aperture, fit for some special sample use.
