Spectrophotometer Neo 9000

Name: 3Color® Neo 9000
Brand: 3Color®
SKU: NEO-9000

The Neo 9000 enables comprehensive measurement of both opaque and transparent materials, eliminating the need for two separate instruments.

Complete Sample Control in Real Time

The Neo 9000 combines reflectance and transmittance measurements in a single device. The spectrophotometer features a complete set of measurement fixtures for reflectance measurements ranging from 0.3 cm to 2.54 cm, as well as a large measurement area for transmittance measurements and accessories for liquids and transparent materials.

The device automatically detects the aperture in use. It can be operated horizontally, vertically, or inverted on a stand.

The spectrophotometer is equipped with a sample preview camera that enables real-time viewing of the material. The camera allows the sample to be positioned very precisely within the measurement area.

The device features a color touchscreen that enables measurements and data readout directly on the device without additional applications.

It offers a wide selection of colorimetric parameters, including color spaces, colorimetric equation systems, indices, illuminants, and more.

The spectrophotometer is compatible with Spectro Color QC software. The program expands the device’s capabilities with additional indices and color spaces, data archiving, and the ability to print reports or create presentations. Color QC software is included with the device.
