IG-331 Gloss Checkers
Overview
An economical gloss meter which utilizes a separate detector and light source, offers the ability to switch between 60 degree measuring angle for standard gloss measurement, and 20 degree measuring angle for high-gloss surfaces with gloss values over 70. One touch of the calibration key starts the automatic sequential zero-span calibration. Gloss meters reflect light when exposed to a surface. The intensity of this reflected light is measured as gloss. The IG-331 provides a measured value to confirm visual gloss observations reducing human error.
Features
- Selectable measuring angles of 60 and 20 degrees
- Automatic, sequential zero and span calibration
Applications:
- Quality control of paint and ink
- Checking glossy printed advertisements
- Checking external appearance of plastic mouldings
- Checking building and masonry finishes
- Floor maintenance.
