Colorimeter FAQ Daquan

The color difference meter is a precision instrument used to test the color difference of the surface of an object, and it is widely used in the field of color management in plastics, printing, paint ink, textile and clothing industries. The Colorimeter is divided into 4mm, 8mm, 16mm, 32mm and other calibers for different applications according to the different test calibers. In addition, it is divided into tri-stimulus Colorimeter and Spectrophotometer according to the test principle.

NBCHAO Mall currently brings together different familiar Colorimeter brands at home and abroad, including Japan's Minolta, Sanenchi, Weifu, Caipu and other brands. This article is a common problem encountered by Colorimeter users when selecting models, and it is a reference for more users to purchase Colorimeters.

common problem

1. This Minolta Colorimeter in Japan can test the color difference of thin film coatings, is it feasible?

[Answer] Yes!

2. We need to measure the chlorophyll content of fresh vegetables. If we want to use the principle of color difference meter, which color difference meter can we choose?

[Answer] Many types of Colorimeters can be tested, and specific parameters need to be further determined for specific selection.

3. Is it possible to use this Weifu WR-10 Colorimeter for plastic spraying powder? Can it work?

[Answer] There is no problem with WR-10 Colorimeter used in the plastic industry. The better application range is the spraying on the plane, and no light leakage is required. WR-10 is Weifu's entry-level Colorimeter with an accuracy of 0.08.

4. Can the NR110 color difference meter test the color difference of powder?

[Answer] Hello, yes. After putting the powder in the bag, press it flat, the amount of powder is larger than the test caliber (such as a one-yuan coin), and test it through the bag. However, in terms of accuracy (the color prompt of the lab will not be as accurate as that of the Spectrophotometer ).

5. Is there a Colorimeter that can measure powder? Calcium Carbonate, Talc

[Answer] For testing powder color difference, compared with imported ones, in fact, the current domestic technology cannot reach the stability of imported color difference meters, but the effects of the following two models are not bad. The first one: 3nh YS3010 spectrophotometric colorimetry Instrument https://www.nbchao.com/p/9703/ , need to be equipped with a powder test box; the second type: Weifu's WF Colorimeter

6. What accessories do Weifu WF30 Colorimeter need to use to measure liquid color difference?

[Answer]  As long as you purchase another liquid test kit, you can test the color difference of the liquid!

7. Can the Colorimeter be used in the glass industry?

[Answer] Yes, you can test the glass color difference!

8. How to adjust the color of ink with Colorimeter?

[Answer]  Use a Colorimeter to measure the color on a good sample, and correctly distinguish whether the original color is a primary color, a secondary color, or a secondary color. If it is a secondary color or secondary color, it is necessary to distinguish the ratio of the main color to the auxiliary color. Be sure to debug the sample according to the color tone indicated by the original, and then debug it after comparing it with the original to see how much the color differs. In particular, repeat the experimental test with a Colorimeter many times to get more accurate data

9. Why is the value measured by the NH310 different from that measured by the Minolta Colorimeter?

[Answer]  If the model of the Colorimeter is different, even if it is an instrument with the same measurement principle (spectroscopic or tristimulus type), the value will be slightly different. If the manufacturer of the Colorimeter is different, the value will be different. Therefore, it is recommended to use the same model as the relevant customer or supplier for colorimetric inspection. This is explained by both domestic and foreign Colorimeter manufacturers.

10. In the past, the standard Color Chart was used for color comparison, but now the customer requires an instrument, and the instrument still has the problem of inaccurate measurement. What is the difference? Just compare with low-end Colorimeters.

[Answer]  Data results can be obtained from Colorimeter measurement, which can be traced back and can be accurately quantitatively processed. In the process of drawing qualitative conclusions through the processing of data results, the adopted standards are also strictly determined. In addition, the Colorimeter measurement is more objective, and different people use the Colorimeter to measure, and the data obtained have little difference. As long as the operation is correct, the Colorimeter measurement does not depend on the experience of the measurer. Finally, with the development of detection technology in recent years, the current Colorimeter can achieve very good accuracy, compared with visual colorimetry, it is no longer the same.

11. Which Colorimeter can measure powder?

[Answer]  You can choose color spectrum CS-580, but it needs to be matched with a quartz glass cup for powder.

12. Can the CS-580 Colorimeter be used to test the skin color of animals in animal experiments?

[Answer]  Yes, put a thin quartz plate on the skin, and then test if it is placed directly on the skin, water and other pollutants will penetrate into the instrument.

13. Can Jinzhun JZ-600 Colorimeter measure the color difference of paste and powder samples?

[Answer] Hello, this can be added with an auxiliary accessory - a powder test cylinder, which can be tested by pouring the paste or powder test substance into it and tightening it.

14. Is there a color measuring instrument that can measure tomato paste?

[Answer] The color spectrum CS-800 desktop Spectrophotometer can measure tomato paste, just put the tomato paste in the petri dish, and then place it on the test port for measurement.

15. Which Colorimeter for printing is more suitable?

[Answer] Hello! Because NBCHAO is a comprehensive shopping mall for the ink, coating, printing and packaging industry, the Colorimeter can be said to be applicable. If you can give us the specific parameters to be achieved by the Colorimeter, we can better suggest the corresponding Colorimeter model to you.

16. Is there a Colorimeter for testing liquids?

[Answer]  CS-810 is mainly tested by transmission principle, suitable for testing liquid or glass.

17. Can the CS-810 Colorimeter be used for liquid fluorescent substances?

[Answer]  Yes, our product description also introduces the testing function. "Using UV-enhanced silicon photodiodes can realize the measurement of fluorescent substance content in liquids, and the transmittance measurement range is expanded from 0-100% to 0-200%." ​​Thank you for your inquiry!
