Precision Gloss Measurement

Engineered for laboratory and industrial environments, the GLOSS TESTER delivers accurate gloss readings between 0-200 GU with an exceptional accuracy of 1 GU. Its 60 measuring angle and rapid response time of 1 second make it ideal for quality control and research applications, whether evaluating paints, coatings, or plastics.

User-Friendly and Reliable Operation

With manual control mode and simple operation, the tester is particularly suited for day-to-day use by technicians and researchers. The large digital LCD allows users to easily interpret readings, while features like data hold and stable output enhance efficiency during repeated testing sessions.

Versatile Material Compatibility

Designed to work with a variety of specimensincluding paint, plating, plastic, paper, ceramics, and stonethe GLOSS TESTER supports specimen sizes of 100 x 50 mm and test strokes up to 140 mm. Its robust design ensures consistent performance for both laboratory and industrial requirements.

FAQs of GLOSS TESTER:

Q: How does the GLOSS TESTER operate and what is its measuring range?

A: The GLOSS TESTER operates manually using a 60 measuring angle and can measure gloss values ranging from 0 to 200 Gloss Units (GU). Users simply place the specimen within the test width and stroke range, initiate the measurement, and view results on the large digital LCD.

Q: What types of materials can I test with this gloss tester?

A: This instrument is compatible with paint, plating, plastic, paper, ceramics, and stone surfaces. Its robust design and standard specimen capacity provide reliable gloss readings across these varied materials.

Q: When should the GLOSS TESTER be recalibrated?

A: The tester comes factory pre-calibrated and includes a calibration standard. Regular calibration checks are recommended after extended use or if performance appears inconsistent. Routine user calibration helps maintain measurement accuracy.

Q: Where can the GLOSS TESTER be used effectively?

A: It is suitable for both laboratory and industrial field applications. Its tabletop, portable design makes it easy to transport between workstations, and it operates efficiently in environments with temperatures from 10C to 40C and humidity up to 85% RH.

Q: What benefits does the display and data output provide?

A: The large digital LCD delivers clear, immediate readings, while features like data hold and stable reading output allow users to store and review measurements with ease. An RS232 interface further facilitates data transfer to external devices for analysis.

Q: How can users maximize the equipments operating time and efficiency?

A: The long-life LED light source enables up to 8 hours of continuous operation. To maintain optimal performance, ensure the power supply is set to 230V AC, and follow manufacturer guidelines for proper specimen placement and manual control.
