Brief description: The CR-10 Plus new small colorimeter is a new generation of economical portable colorimeter, an upgraded version of the CR-10, which is a high-performance and affordable cost-effective choice.
The new generation of economical portable colorimeter CR-10 Plus, as an upgraded version of CR-10, not only achieves lightweight, flexible, and easy to carry, but also connects with a computer, which can further expand the scope of data management and meet the frequent and fast on-site measurement and instant results of quality inspectors, 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, measure the target, and measure the sample in three steps to complete the measurement, which will be displayed in three languages: Chinese, English, and Japanese.
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.)
1Save the measurement data to the measuring instrumentThe 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.)
2Save the measurement data to the computerThe data saved in the measuring instrument can be displayed in computer applications or saved to a computer.
3Easily achieve qualified/unqualified judgment through buzzing sound and illuminated indicator lightBefore 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 ø 8mm (standard accessory) and ø 5mm (optional accessory) can be selected for measuring small area samples

2Multiple charging methods are available: battery, rechargeable battery, USB cable, power adapter

| Working Principle: |
| Automatically compare the color differences between the sample and the inspected product, and output three sets of data L, a, and b, as well as four sets of color difference data △ E, △ L, △ a, and △ b after color comparison. |
| The magnitude of the total color difference of △ E |
| A large △ L indicates a bias towards white, while a small △ L indicates a bias towards black |
| A large △ a indicates a reddish tint, while a small △ a indicates a greenish tint |
| A large △ b indicates a yellowish tint, while a small △ b indicates a bluish tint |
| usage method: |
| 1. Remove the lens protective cover. |
| 2. Turn on the power to the ON position. |
| 3. Press the TARGET button on the sample, and Target L a b will be displayed. |
| 4. Align the lens with the tested part of the sample, press the input button, and wait for a beep before moving the lens. At this point, the value of the sample will be displayed as Target L * *. * a+- * *. * b+- * *. *. |
| 5. Aim the lens at the tested part of the object to be tested again, repeat the testing work in point 4, and display the color difference value between the tested object and the sample: dL * *. * da+- * *. * db+- * *. *. |
| 6. According to the working principle described earlier, determine the color difference and color deviation direction between dL, da, and db. |
| 7. Repeat points 6 and 7 to detect color differences between other tested items and the sample in point 4. |
| 8. To resample, press TARGET once, starting from 4 o'clock. |
| 9. After testing, cover the lens protective cover and turn off the power. |
