Outstanding Features

• Standard D/8 optical system, SCI: The device uses a diffuse illumination structure with an 8-degree viewing angle (D/8) and measures in SCI (Specular Component Included) mode. This mode allows the device to accurately evaluate the true color of the material, regardless of whether the sample surface has different gloss or roughness.
• Impressive accuracy and repeatability: The DS-200 delivers very good repeatability at dE*ab ≤ 0.03, along with an extremely detailed display resolution of up to 0.01. This ensures that measurement results are always highly consistent in consecutive measurements, helping to detect even the smallest color deviations.
• Versatile Φ6mm measurement aperture: The device is equipped with a fixed measurement aperture of Φ6mm. This is a very flexible size, just enough to acquire accurate color data, and easy to operate on medium and small-sized samples or slightly curved surfaces that larger apertures have difficulty accessing.
• High-durability LED light source: The device uses an LED light source combined with energy-saving technology. This light source not only provides a stable spectrum for measurements but also has a very long lifespan, helping to save maintenance costs throughout the machine’s life cycle.
• Portable design, easy operation: With an ergonomic design that fits comfortably in the hand, an intuitive display screen, and simple buttons, users can perform measurements and read color difference results (Pass/Fail) directly on the machine in just a few seconds.

Practical Applications

Thanks to its fast, stable measurement capabilities and reasonable investment cost, the CHN SPEC DS-200 is a popular quality control (QC) tool for:

• Plastics industry: measuring the color of injection-molded plastic components, household appliances, and plastic pellets.
• Coatings and surface industry: inspecting the color deviation of electrostatic powder coatings and metal plating surfaces.
• Textiles and footwear industry: evaluating the color consistency of fabric batches, garment accessories, and leather surfaces.
• Quickly inspecting the color of basic packaging and labels in the production workshop.
