haze-gard plus is a stationary
instrument designed to measure the
appearance of glass and of films,
packaging and parts made of plastic
and other transparent materials.
The specimen surface is illuminated
perpendicularly, and the transmitted
light is measured photoelectrically,
using an integrating sphere (0°/diffuse
geometry). The spectral sensitivity
conforms to CIE standard spectral
value function y, under standard light
C resp. A.
Three parameters:
s
s
s
permit visual appearance to be in
characterized fully and objectively.
haze-gard plus sets new standards
transparency measurement instru-
ments. Aside from its speed and ease
of operation, it also offers the follo-
wing features:
s
