Description
This 2020 Model M-Basic II from Agtron is a large area (26 sq.in.) reflectance spectrophotometer designed to deal with the challenge of measuring color and process-related changes associated with food and this large viewing area permits analysis of the irregular geometry of foods with little or NO sample preparation.
Provides a single numerical score for each of the four colors simultaneously.
Single Color Reflectance Mode: Displays one user-selected color as a single number score.
Uses the full visible spectrum and provides a single score calculated with human perception bias. This score relates to how the product generally appears to the consumer. A two-point change in score from product to product is noticeable under any common lighting conditions. This machine uses the full-color spectrum to determine the perceived lightness/darkness of a product. A one-point change in score is noticeable to it.
A two-point calibration method improves long-term control over both the analytical slope and span. In addition, improved stability requires less frequent calibration and takes only about one minute.
