SP60 / SP62 / SP64 Portable Sphere Spectrophotometer
Advanced color measurement

The SP60 is an affordable sphere spectrophotometer, designed to give fast, precise and accurate color measurement information on materials ranging from paper and paint to plastics and textiles.

Measuring Functions and Indices
The SP60 provides absolute and difference measurements for the following colormetric systems. These values can be obtained from any of nine illuminants with 2° or 10° observer angle: L*a*b*, L*a*b*, L*C*h°, L*C*H*, E*ab, ECMC, E CIE94 and XYZ. Whiteness and yellowness per ASTM E313-98 + AATCC Gray Scale.

Pass/Fail Mode
The SP60 stores up to 1,024 standards with tolerances for easy pass/fail measurement. A red/green LED indicator and the LCD display provide visual confirmation of results. A tone also sounds to indicate a fail result.

Quick Color Compare
An operator can take a quick measurement and comparison of two colors. This allows the operator to take quality-control readings in a time-efficient manner without having to create tolerances or store data.

The Sphere
The SP60’s diffusing sphere is made of Spectralon®, a durable, highly reflective material designed to perform in a rigorous production environment. The diffusing material prevents premature degradation due to the flaking and chipping of the sphere wall material.

Opacity, Color Strength and Shade Sorting
The SP60 can measure opacity as well as three color-strength options: chromatic, apparent and tristimulus calculations. The SP60 also performs 555 shade sorting. These are important considerations in the color quality control of manufactured products involving
plastic, painted or textile materials.

Texture and Gloss Influence
To determine the influence of the specular component, the SP60 allows simultaneous measurement of both specular-included (color) and specular-excluded (appearance).
