The ColorQuest® XT is a self-contained transmission spectrophotometer that measures the transmitted color of transparent materials such as resins, solvents, acids and oils. It includes widely used color scales and indices such as APHA/PtCo/Hazen, Gardner, Saybolt and ASTM Color. Data is displayed on an integral LCD. The ColorQuest XT eliminates the subjectivity of visual comparison methods and increases precision.

Application Note
USP and EP Visual Color Standards
The USP and EP Color Standards are visual color standards, intended to improve color communication between sites by defining a sample color as being close to physical liquid standard ("near USP F"; "near EP Y2") rather than using words ("light yellow"). Read Vol. 20, No. 8 (PDF)
Featured Accessory
Transmission Spill Tray and Cell Holder permits transmittance measurement of liquids using rectangular transmission cells.
