CHN SPEC DS-01 Colorimeter (d/8, SCI, ΔE≤0.1)

CHN SPEC DS-01 Colorimeter (d/8, SCI, ΔE≤0.1)

The CHNSpec DS-01 handheld colorimeter (belonging to the basic generation ColorMeter segment) is a line of digital pocket-sized color measurement devices designed to optimize costs for businesses. The device is a perfect replacement for visual color assessment methods that are prone to subjective bias and errors, helping digitize color data rapidly right on the factory floor or out in the field.

Key Features

• Mobile App Connectivity & Cloud Management: Integrates Bluetooth technology to connect directly with mobile applications (Android/iOS). Users can easily store thousands of measurement data entries, create proprietary color libraries, and synchronize data to the Cloud to share with partners or departments.
• Smart Color Matching Search: The device supports measuring any sample and then automatically searches for the closest matching color code within standard electronic color card systems (such as Pantone, RAL, NCS…).
• Pass/Fail Judgment: Technicians can preset an allowable color difference tolerance threshold. When conducting actual sample measurements, the device automatically compares, calculates ΔE, and provides a “Pass” or “Fail” alert instantly, accelerating the QC workflow.
• Easy Calibration: Comes bundled with a dedicated black/white calibration base. The optimized calibration workflow ensures the device always maintains its highest accuracy before entering a new work shift.
• Ultra-Compact Design: With a compact cylindrical profile similar to a pen or a small flashlight and an ultra-lightweight build, users can easily carry it in a shirt pocket and move flexibly across various workshops for on-site sample inspection.

Practical Industrial Applications

Thanks to the perfect balance between commercial features and low investment costs, the CHNSpec DS-01 is popularly applied in rapid incoming and outgoing quality inspection stages across the following industries:

• Packaging & Printing: Checking the color deviation of packaging plastic films, paper labels, and cardboard boxes.
• Plastics & Color Masterbatch Industry: Rapidly monitoring the color of molded plastic preforms and household plastic products.
• Paint & Coatings: Measuring and cross-checking the color of wall paint and protective coatings on metal components at a basic level.
• Textiles & Footwear Industry: Conducting preliminary color uniformity inspections on batches of fabrics and synthetic leather before putting them onto the production line.
