Konica Minolta CR-20 small colorimeter from Japan

The upgraded version of the new generation economical portable colorimeter, CR-11/CR-13/CR-14. Measure the chromaticity values of various forms of samples such as solids, powders, and pastes through simple and fast operations.

Product Introduction
The new generation of economical portable colorimeter CR-20, as an upgraded version of CR-11/CR-13/CR-14, not only is it lightweight, flexible, and easy to carry, but it also connects to a computer, which can further expand the scope of data management and meet the frequent and fast on-site measurements of quality inspectors, providing instant results and helping enterprises achieve efficient supplier and product quality control.

Easy to operate, instantly measure the color difference between the sample color and the reference color
Simply turn on the device, perform whiteboard calibration, and measure the sample in three steps to complete the measurement.
Display chromaticity indices calculated from multiple color spaces
You can choose measurement results from 8 different color spaces: L*a*b*、L*C*h、Yxy、XYZ、Munsell、WI (CIE/ASTM E 313-96)、Tint (CIE/ASTM E 313-96)、YI (ASTM E 313-96)。
Multi point average measurement
If the sample color is uneven, you can use the measurement button to take the average of multiple points as a reference.
Humanized design, lightweight body
1. Compact appearance and excellent performance
2. Large screen LCD display, easy to read
3. The depth of the grip groove and the position of the measurement button are carefully designed to meet different grip habits and conform to ergonomics
4. Smooth and fine surface, derived from high-precision appearance processing technology

Support computer applications for more convenient use
The measuring instrument is equipped with a built-in computer application, which can further expand the scope of data management.
(Note: When using computer applications, a separate computer must be prepared.)
1. Save the measurement data to the measuring instrument
The measuring instrument can store up to 1000 sets of measurement data (including reference colors) in its memory. (After setting, there is no need to start the computer application every time to use this function.)
2. Save the measurement data to the computer
The data saved in the measuring instrument can be displayed in computer applications or saved to a computer.
3. Easily achieve qualified/unqualified judgment through buzzing sound and illuminated indicator light
Before measurement, the threshold can be set to the default value. When the measured value exceeds the threshold, it will be highlighted. In addition, the judgment result can be identified based on the type of buzzing sound and the color of the illuminated indicator light. (After setting, there is no need to start the computer application every time to use this function.)

Other features
1. Target cover protective glass
The tip of the CR-20 is equipped with a target cover glass to protect the measuring aperture, allowing you to directly measure various samples including powders, pastes, and sticky objects.
2. Connect the printer to the CR-20 to print measurement data.
3. Multiple charging methods are available: battery, rechargeable battery, USB cable, power adapter
