BYK spectro Color Meter is Color measurement device to facilitate quality control.
1. BYK spectro-guide / color guide
Color and gloss measurement for basic applications.
Visual colour sampling is subjective and depends on the environmental conditions. The spectro-guide and colour guide are easy-to-use instruments to objectively measure colour and gloss against physical standards and document the results in EXCEL. The S family has improved technical performance for gloss (< 10 GU), ideal for low gloss applications.
- - Colour and 60° gloss measurement in one instrument
- - Easy handling due to defined keys for standard and sample measurement
- - Innovative LED technology ensures long-term and temperature-stable measurement results
- - Stable calibration - only necessary every three months
- - Low maintenance
- - Data transfer to easy-link for simple documentation in EXCEL

- - Colour and 60° gloss measurement in one instrument
- - available in 45/0 geometry or as spherical spectrophotometer (d/8)
- - Interchange of digital standards thanks to excellent instrument matching
- - Balanced design with large, colour touch screen
- - External test and calibration standards
- - Live preview of the measurement spot with integrated camera
- - Intelligent high-tech LED illumination with outstanding short-, long-term and temperature stability
- - 10-year warranty on the LEDs - no lamp replacement necessary
- - Professional data analysis with smart-chart combined with WiFi or USB connection
2.1.2. Spectro2guide
Spectro2guide represents the next step in the evolution of colour measurement. The device combines a spectrophotometer with a fluorimeter in one portable device. For the first time, colour and 60° gloss are measured and light fastness is predicted.
