Supplier: Lovibond™ 440110
Description
The Lovibond ColorPod is based on proven technology that has been utilized in the water testing area for a number of years. Traditionally Pfund color units have been derived using subjective visual assessment in a Pfund Honey Colorimeter or against glass standards. This can lead to differences in reported values between users. A more objective approach is to use an instrumental method based on a photometric measurement.
- Handheld photometer for analysis of Pfund color units
- Fast, simple color matching
- Provides automatic absolute measurement; more accurate than subjective visual evaluation of color
- Instrument is compact and portable, allowing for measurements to be made on location, rather than transporting samples back to the lab
- Measurement is performed using two single wavelength LEDs at right angles to each other
- Light at 430nm and 530nm is passed through the sample being analyzed; transmitted light is then related to the Pfund color scale or to the seven USDA Honey classifications
- Samples are measured in 10mm path length plastic cuvettes that are inserted into spill-proof sample chamber
- Measurements take only three seconds to perform, with results output in mm Pfund honey
- Splash proof casing with chemical-resistant keypad
- To maintain battery life, instrument powers itself down if it has not been used for five minutes
