COLORMETER

500 Series

CS- 500
CS- 5200 plus phone

The 500 series spectrophotometers are designed to deliver a high user experience, accuracy and excellent functionality.

Their design allows for a comfortable to grip.  The weight distribution has been balanced for a comfortable operation.

The touchscreen display brings simplicity to measuring, navigating and viewing data.

​

The 500 & 520 Auto calibrate and charges when placed in the base unit.

​

The 500 series connects to the CM APP available for free on Android and iOS devices. The CM App allows you to measure, compare and save readings on your mobile device.

Auto Calibration

Changes in temperature and humidity can effect colours, so calibrating your devices regularly throughout the working day can help with the accuracy of your measurement data. However this takes time and it is a task not be rushed, as a speck of dust, a scratch, smear or poor contact can result in a poor calibration, which will effect measurement data. The 500 series automatically calibrates (and charges) when the device is sat in its base unit, saving time and ensures consistent accurate measurement data.
