TS7036 Portable Spectrophotometer | Dual 4/8 mm Apertures
TS7036 Portable Spectrophotometer: Product Features
The TS7036 is a portable spectrophotometer for objective color measurement in production, incoming inspection, and laboratory quality control. Its diffuse/8° geometry supports both SCI (specular component included) and SCE (specular component excluded) measurements, helping teams evaluate color consistently across coatings, textiles, plastics, food, building materials, cosmetics, and other products.
- Dual apertures: SAV Φ4/5 mm and MAV Φ8/10 mm help match the measurement area to the sample.
- Stable optical system: A 40 mm integrating sphere, plane-grating spectrometer, and dual-row silicon photodiode array provide broad spectral response.
- Full-spectrum illumination: Combined LED illumination covers 400–700 nm for visible-spectrum measurement.
- Measurement modes: SCI and SCE results are available, with selectable illuminants and observer angles.
- Practical positioning: A camera viewfinder and stable positioning plate help place the instrument accurately, including on small samples.
- On-board evaluation: Compare color differences, assess whiteness and yellowness indices, check color strength and opacity, and search color-card data.
- Quality workflows: Store standards and test records, review spectral curves, and use SQCX software for monitoring, reports, and workflow management.
- Automatic calibration: The ETC system performs real-time calibration using the reference white tile.
Measurement performance depends on sample condition, aperture, calibration, and operating procedure. Please confirm the required geometry and configuration for your application with our team.
