Tintometer Launch New Automatic Spectrophotometric Colorimeter for Liquids

The Lovibond® Tintometer® PFXi series sees the launch of a new technological breakthrough from the Tintometer Ltd. The new PFXi series of instruments include RCMSi technology (Remote Calibration & Maintenance Service via internet). This unique feature allows a calibrated measurement to be taken using an ISO 17025 certified liquid standard. The spectral response is transmitted to The Tintometer Ltd’s secure calibration server in Amesbury UK. On completion of this procedure a traceable calibration certificate is e-mailed to the user. The RCMSi system not only gives the user added confidence that the instrument is working within tight ISO standards but also reduces the need for expensive on-site servicing and preventative maintenance of the unit.

The large, clear LCD screen allows the display of graphs and data in a wide variety of languages and the easy to use menu system guides operators through the selection of operating parameters. Measurements are initiated by just a single key press. The accuracy, repeatability and reproducibility of data provided by the instruments allow for tighter colour specifications and greater colour consistency, giving companies the confidence needed to make important decisions regarding high value consignments and refining operations. When measuring Saybolt or Pt-Co Colour of clear, water-white products, the unique long sample path length ensures precise colour measurements, without multiplying errors. Lovibond® instruments are widely used in industry to ensure that these colour changes can be monitored reliably and easily, and that industry can ensure their products meet international specifications.
