CR-400 / 410

Chroma Meter

Highly accurate, multi-functional, and user-friendly, Konica Minolta's new Chroma Meters CR-400 and CR-410 provide support for measurement using just the measuring head.

Features

Product Overview

  • Logical naming of buttons allows the setting and calibration of color-difference target colors and other similar measurement operations to be carried out with ease.
  • With repeatability within ΔE*ab 0.07 and excellent inter-instrument agreement (within ΔE*ab 0.6 for the CR-400; within ΔE*ab 0.8 for the CR-410), these products deliver high levels of accuracy.
  • A user calibration function allows even higher levels of precision to be achieved. (Requires a Data Processor or optional software.)
  • Limit values can be set and acceptability criteria evaluated (pass, warn, or fail). (Requires a Data Processor or optional software.)
  • In addition to the color systems on the CR-300 and CR-310, a wide range of other color systems are available for selection.
  • Up to 1000 data can be stored when using the measuring head alone, and this can be increased to 2000 data when the head is connected to a Data Processor. (In both cases, a total of 100 color-difference target colors can be stored.)
  • Able to display color difference graphs, these Chroma Meters allow color difference conditions to be ascertained at a glance. (when used with Data Processor)
  • Input of comments for color-difference target colors and of calibration channel names can be performed in the same simple procedure as used with mobile phones. (when used with Data Processor)
  • A backlit LCD panel allows data to be displayed with clarity and precision.
  • Screen content can be displayed in any of six different languages, including English and Japanese.
  • Rechargeable batteries are used to reduce running costs.

Principal Applications

 

  • Food & Ingredient, agricultural, forestry, and fishery products
  • Building materials
  • Medical and scientific uses

Main Features

  • Independent measurement with the measuring head
    The measuring head can be disconnected from the Data Processor to perform measurements independently. In addition, it is also possible to link the measuring head directly to a PC, and optional software (sold separately) can then be used to allow the PC to carry out data processing in place of the Data Processor.
  • Free selection of evaluation and color-calculation formulae
    Featuring a user index function for the free setting of evaluation and color-calculation formulae, the CR-400 and CR-410 Chroma Meters are not limited to standard evaluation formulae and color systems such as L*a*b*; rather, they are ideal solutions when performing color control using formulae unique to a specific industry or customer.
  • Full complement of accessories for flexible specimen support
    The many accessories available for these Chroma Meters facilitate the measurement of powder, liquid, paste, and many other types of specimens.
  • Compact Data Processor with integrated high-speed printer
    Although it conceals a high-speed printer, the battery-powered* Data Processor boasts a lightweight, compact design, With size and weight reduced by approximately half from that of the CR-300 series, this device can also be fitted with a shoulder strap for added mobility.
    *: The Data Processor can also be powered using an AC adapter.
  • CR-300 and CR-310 data compatibility
    The Chroma Meter CR-400 and CR-410 feature the same illumination/viewing optical system as the CR-300 and CR-310.  Respectively  data compatibility is assured. As a result, data obtained using these earlier devices may still be put to effective use.
