Spectrophotometer CM-3630
The CM-3630 bench-top spectrophotometer ensures perfect compliance to optical standards ISO 2469 and ISO 2470 used in the Pulp and Paper Industry. Together with the designated software values for color, brightness, whiteness and yellowness indices are calculated and displayed in full accordance with several international and national standards such as ISO, SCAN, DIN, TAPPI, CPPA and AFNOR.
Numerical UV-Control makes calibration and adjustments to whiteness and tint a fast and easy procedure. In fact, in just a few seconds your instrument is perfectly calibrated, much faster and with conventional instruments. Since everything's done numerically, and with the significant reduction in moving parts, it is almost maintenance free
Using the patented Numerical UV control (NUVC) it is a highly accurate and reliable bench top spectrophotometer in the production environment. Controlled via the optional software SpectraMagic NX, the CM-3630 can give values for color, tint, whiteness, yellowness, brightness, fluorescence, and opacity. Furthermore, the Numerical UV-Control allows easy adjustment of the instrument's parameters to other instruments and thus, ensuring closer data correlation.
