The new X-Rite 528T is an outstanding choice for demanding color and brightness measurement work in the paper laboratory. This instrument uses 0o/45o measurement geometry which is standard in several ANSI, TAPPI, and ISO Test Methods. In addition to measurement of TAPPI Brightness, this instrument measures color in L*a*b*, XYZ, and several other recognized formats.
This precision instrument can measure across the visible spectrum from 400nm to 700nm and with 10 standard illuminants including TAPPI standard illuminants "C" and "A".
Every instrument comes equipped with a standard RS-232 computer data interface for direct connection to a computer or data acquisition system. Optional software for complete data analysis and storage is also available.
There is no longer any reason for your brightness / colorimeter to take up a large portion of your precious lab bench space. This instrument has benefited greatly from the wonders of micro-miniaturization without sacrificing quality or accuracy.
