CHN SPEC CS-380 Gloss Meter (20, 60, 85 degrees)

CHN SPEC CS-380 Gloss Meter (20, 60, 85 degrees)

The CHN SPEC CS-380 Gloss Meter is a professional surface quality measurement device. Unlike the Standard Edition (SE) limited to 200 GU, the CS-380 version is equipped with an extended measurement range and a high-end optical sensor system. The simultaneous integration of three illumination angles (20°, 60°, and 85°) makes this device a perfect tool for evaluating the gloss of all types of materials, meeting the standards of laboratories and large-scale manufacturing plants.

Outstanding Features

Simultaneous three-angle measurement (20°, 60°, 85°): The device allows collecting and displaying results for all three angles simultaneously with just one click, helping users accurately evaluate all surface conditions:

• 20° Angle: Optimized for high-gloss surfaces such as high-end automotive paints, metal plated surfaces, and optical glass.
• 60° Angle: A versatile measurement angle, suitable for semi-gloss materials such as plastics, electrostatic powder coatings, and wooden furniture.
• 85° Angle: Extremely high sensitivity specialized for low-gloss/matte surfaces such as leather, paper, and matte plastics.

Extended measurement range (Up to 1000 GU): The most valuable upgrade of the CS-380 is its ultra-wide measurement range. Thanks to the large measurement range, the device can perfectly analyze materials with strong light reflection (such as chrome plating, polished stainless steel) without reporting data overflow errors like basic models.

Excellent accuracy and repeatability: The exquisitely crafted optical system provides the device with excellent data stability. The device fully complies with international measurement standards such as ISO 2813, ASTM D523, GB/T 9754, and DIN 67530, ensuring consistency for global supply chains.

Powerful data management (PC Integration): The device supports massive internal data storage. Through a USB connection (or optional Bluetooth), users can synchronize the device with specialized PC software to set tolerances, draw trend charts, and export detailed quality control (QC) reports.

Smart calibration, durable design: The device comes with a magnetic calibration base. Upon startup, the device automatically recognizes the standard tile and performs calibration. The sturdy casing design resists light impacts, combined with a large color screen, making operation easy even in complex factory environments.
