CHN SPEC TH-100 Haze Meter

CHN SPEC TH-100 Haze Meter

The CHN SPEC TH-100 Haze Meter (Haze and Transmittance Meter) is the foundational standard version in the brand’s optical analysis product line. The device is optimally designed to quickly and accurately evaluate the two core parameters of transparent or translucent materials: Haze caused by light scattering and Total Transmittance. This is an indispensable tool for quality control (QC) of optical materials.

Outstanding Features

• Comprehensive measurement (0 – 100% Range): The device possesses the ability to fully analyze the light transmittance range from 0% to 100%. The device easily measures all material states, from ultra-transparent glass panels to semi-opaque plastics and films.
• Compliance with international standard systems: The TH-100 is equipped with an optical system (integrating sphere) that fully meets the world’s leading testing standards, including ASTM D1003, ISO 13468, ISO 14782, JIS K 7136, and GB/T 2410. This compliance ensures that the output data is highly consistent and globally recognized.
• Open measurement chamber design (Open Sample Compartment): The sample compartment space features a flexible open design. Thanks to this, operators can easily directly measure large glass panels, device screens (LCD/LED), or rolled films without cutting them, helping to preserve the integrity of the product.
• Stable light source & Long lifespan: The device uses a high-quality light source system, providing absolute stability during continuous testing processes while minimizing the maintenance cost of bulb replacement.
• Independent operation with touch screen: The TH-100 integrates a color touch screen with a user-friendly interface, allowing users to perform measurements, view data, and receive alerts directly on the device without necessarily connecting to a computer.

Practical Applications

With high stability and versatility, the CHN SPEC TH-100 is a powerful assistant for the following industries:

• Film and packaging production: Evaluating the transparency and haze of nylon films (PE, PP, PET), food cling wraps, and shrink films, ensuring the display quality of the packaging.
• Glass & Glassware industry: Inspecting the optical quality of architectural glass, automotive windshields, insulated glass units, and decorative glass (sandblasted glass).
• Industrial plastics industry: Measuring the transparency of light-transmitting plastic sheets, polycarbonate, and acrylic (PMMA) used in advertising signs and partitions.
• Optoelectronic components: Inspecting the light transmittance level of touch screen protective panels, smartphone tempered glass, and polarizing films.
