Features

The Two-Field Comparator 2000+ is the easiest way for you to measure against the Gardner Scale and show compliance to standards.
Includes an integrated prism which causes the sample and comparison fields to overlap, allowing enhanced colour discrimination and matching. The prism is ultrasonically sealed to prevent contamination of the optics. Each individually graded glass standard represents a discrete step on the measurement range (as opposed to a continuous graduation), aiding color discrimination and allowing great accuracy of results.
Fast, economical & portable visual matching
It is a useful Quality Control instrument for in-coming and out-going goods.
Reliable and repeatable colour test results are key to ensuring final product quality and minimising production costs.
Ability to guarantee constant lighting conditions, an optional item is the Daylight 2000 Lighting Unit. This is a standardised light source which guarantees you a constant lighting condition for accurate color grading. This is particularly useful when the sample is very pale in color. By using a lighting unit, you can confident of uniform lighting conditions for color matching, 24 hours a day and irrespective of ambient lighting.
Applications: edible oils and fats, petroleum oils and waxes
Easy to use, just rotate the disc to get the closest result to the scale.
Flexible, modular system for visual color grading. Using a suitable comparator instrument and glass disc, you can quickly visually match the sample directly against the calibrated, color stable glass standards.
Extended shelf life, test discs that incorporate colored glass standards that are color stable and not affected by UV light or extreme environmental conditions.
