On-Line Transmission Color and Haze Measurement

The ColorQuest® OL Haze is an on-line spectrophotometer that continuously measures the transmitted color of plastic film and sheet that is clear or hazy. Color, yellowness and transmission haze can be measured. It is excellent for the in-process control of products with color, or the yellowness of colorless product. On-line color measurement gives you a continuous flow of information, which lets you make faster, better informed decisions to optimize your process and maintain quality.

The ColorQuest Haze is comprised of a signal conditioning unit and a sensor head which is mounted on the production line. The sample passes through the opening in the sensor. The signal conditioning unit has a built-in touch screen display. Prompts appearing on the display are simply touched with a finger to initiate dedicated product set-up and measurement applets. Data can be output to a LIMS or network or in analog form.
