3nh YS3010 Grating Spectrophotometer (400-700nm; 10nm)
In industrial production quality control processes, assessing colors visually under workshop lighting always poses risks of errors due to subjective factors and metamerism (a phenomenon where colors look identical under one light source but mismatch when brought under another). To completely standardize the QC workflow within an optimized budget, businesses require a scientific quantitative tool capable of analyzing the spectral structure of color particles. The 3nh YS3010 portable spectrophotometer is the perfect answer – a mobile device featuring an ultra-fine 10nm spectral interval, helping businesses master color control technology with maximum reliability.

Overview of the 3nh YS3010 Spectrophotometer
The 3nh YS3010 is a specialized portable spectrophotometer thoroughly researched by the 3nh brand to optimize mobile measurement capabilities in workshops and warehouses while ensuring accuracy equivalent to benchtop models. The device adopts the international standard d/8 optical geometry structure (diffuse illumination, 8-degree viewing angle), fully and strictly meeting the demanding regulations of CIE No.15, ISO 7724/1, ASTM E1164, and DIN 5033.
The outstanding advantage that establishes the YS3010 as a leader in the standard spectrophotometer segment lies in its concave grating spectrophotometry technology combined with an ultra-sensitive dual-path CMOS matrix sensor system. The device smoothly segments visible light spectrum energy from the 400 nm to 700 nm wavelength range with an ultra-small 10nm interval, detecting even the smallest micro-level color deviations on material surfaces.
Key Features of the 3nh YS3010
💡 Smooth Spectral Analysis Capacity (400-700nm; 10nm Interval)
The core power of the 3nh YS3010 lies in its continuous spectral scanning range that completely covers visible light with an ultra-fine 10nm bandwidth interval. This technology allows the machine to analyze the spectral reflectance curves of materials in detail, completely eliminating errors caused by metamerism and delivering stable measurement results with excellent repeatability across multiple consecutive tests.
💡 Simultaneous Integration of Dual Premium Measurement Modes: SCI and SCE
The advanced optical system of the YS3010 allows technicians to deeply analyze material surface characteristics through two measurement modes:
- SCI (Specular Component Included): Measures the core, intrinsic color of the material, completely eliminating any external interference from surface gloss on matte finishes or the roughness of powder coatings and plastics.
- SCE (Specular Component Excluded): Measures the actual color hue displayed before the consumer’s eyes, perfectly serving appearance evaluation in accordance with true visual perception.
💡 Standard Flat Measuring Aperture Design and Precise Locating
The YS3010 features an industry-standard flat measuring head with an 8mm aperture diameter, which is the most optimal size for the vast majority of production materials. The flat measuring head design allows the device to fit completely flush against large flat surfaces of products, eliminating external stray light interference. Combined with a clear illuminated locating indicator, technicians can easily align the measuring head precisely with the exact target center point to be tested.
💡 Comprehensive Color Space Systems and Ultra-Fast Pass/Fail Evaluation
With a single press of a button taking less than 1.5 seconds, the device immediately calculates and displays:
- Complete international color space coordinate systems: CIE Lab, XYZ, Yxy, LCh, RGB…
- Advanced color difference formulas: Delta Eab, Delta E00, Delta Ecmc, Delta E94.
- Intelligent warning mode: Automatically compares the measured sample with the standard sample and instantly displays “Pass” or “Fail” based on the preset tolerance range, helping factory workers quickly screen out defective parts directly on the production line.
💡 Advanced PC Software Connection for Data Management
Via a high-speed USB data port or smart Bluetooth, the YS3010 easily synchronizes data with professional color management software on computers. The software supports businesses in storing tens of thousands of standard samples, managing electronic color card libraries (Pantone, RAL), tracking color variation trend charts of production batches, and automatically exporting professional quality control report files (QC Reports) in PDF/Excel formats to send to major partners.
Practical Applications of the 3nh YS3010
Thanks to its compact mobility, fine 10nm spectral scanning range, and maximum reliability, the 3nh YS3010 portable spectrophotometer is widely applied in various fields:
- Plastics Industry: Controlling the color uniformity of incoming Masterbatch plastic granules, plastic preforms, and the surfaces of large flat molded plastic products such as household plastic panels, TV casings, refrigerators, and automotive plastic components.
- Paint & Plating Coating Industry: Measuring and inspecting color deviation of powder coatings, coil coatings, protective layers on metal sheets, construction materials, and architectural wood furniture.
- Printing & Packaging Industry: Inspecting color deviation of printing ink on paper boxes, flat corrugated cartons, and embossed decal labels, ensuring the accurate brand identity colors of partners.
- Textiles & Leather Industry: Quickly evaluating color quality, color fastness, and color uniformity between batches of dyed flat fabrics before moving into mass cutting and sewing lines.
