NR20XE Large Aperture Precision Colorimeter

NR20XE with φ20mm extended aperture and stable end face can test surface stripe and wet products.

Difference between NR20XE and Ordinary Portable Colorimeter

When testing products such as meat by ordinary colorimeter, the whole instrument body has to be placed in the object which not only stains the instrument, but also will let the liquid/water enter the instrument directly and bring cross contamination. However, NR20XE is a vertical structure. When measuring, it can make sure only the aperture touches the object which will not stain the instrument body.

Product Introduction

3nh NR20XE is a handheld colorimeter based on 45°/0° optical geometry. Its measuring aperture is 20mm. NR20XE measuring aperture is the biggest one in domestic. Meanwhile, it also has high measuring precision. As a member of 3nh 45°/0° colorimeter, NR20XE is a colorimeter with unique performance. The color measurement results from NR20XE simulate human eyes but its accuracy is several times higher than human eyes. NR20XE 45°/0 ° optical geometry structures can reflect interactive effect between surface stripe and sample color more effectively than 8°/d colorimeter. NR20XE will eliminate the errors between human eyes and color tester caused by surface stripe when judging tolerance critical value of sample colors. Therefore, NR20XE is widely used in color field.

QC Department

NR20XE can meet quality control requirements in plastic (PET，PE，PP，PTA，ABS，EVA particles and powder), color steel plate, coating, textile, fluorescent material, denim, medicine and food industries, etc. It can help to control product color difference, improve product competitiveness, reduce enterprises’ loss and control production cost.

Applications

Food, medicine, textile, non-woven fabrics, denim, dyeing and printing, color steel plate, paper, plastic, chemical, coating, ink, building material industries, etc.

NR20XE Precision Colorimeter

1. When I received NH310/NH300 colorimeter and perform measurement, why the measured data is abnormal?

After receiving NH310/NH300, you have to perform white and black calibration manually when first starting.

2. In which condition, manual white and black calibration and auto calibration are required for NH310?

a. It’s needed to perform manual calibration for NH310 when first starting.

b. In the subsequent starting, NH310 will perform auto calibration at startup. No need to perform manual calibration.

c. Suggestion: it’s best to perform manual calibration once a week or when NH310 measured data is not accurate.

3. In which condition, manual white and black calibration for NH300 is required?

a. It’s needed to perform manual calibration for NH300 when first starting.

b. In the subsequent starting, no need to perform manual calibration.

c. Suggestion: it’s best to perform manual calibration once a week or when NH300 measured data is not accurate.

4. How to replace NH310 measuring aperture?

There are three measuring apertures for NH310: Φ8mm (standard accessory), Φ4mm (standard accessory), extended Φ8mm (optional accessory)

a. Turning on

b. Removing measuring aperture, install the needed measuring aperture.

c. Select “Settings-Aperture Setting” in main menu to select corresponding measuring aperture.

d. After selecting aperture, the instrument will display “White and Black Calibration” interface. White and black calibration must be performed.

e. Replace completed.

5. CQCS3 (Color Quality Control System) Installation

a. Before installation, please Copy CQCS3 folder to your computer and don’t remove any files in CQCS3 folder.

b. Double-click the setup.exe to install CQCS3 software.

c. Then double-click Install.bat under the CQCS3\USB_Driver file to install the driver.

d. Detailed installation information please read the "Installing Software" under CQCS3 User manual.doc.

6. How to check communication port?

a. Connect colorimeter to the PC with USB cable.

b. Turn on the colorimeter to enter main menu. Select “Comm” and press “Enter” key to start communication.

c. Right click on “My Computer” on the desktop. Click “Manage” -> “Device Manager” -> “Ports”, you can see similar display as “SCI USB2Serial (COM6)”.

d. Click “Settings->Communication Parameters” in CQCS3 software interface. Select the corresponding port in “Serial Port”.

7. After completing CQCS3 installation, how to solve the problem if it display “! USB Device” or “! SCI USB2Serial (COM6)” when checking the communication port?
