Hazemeter HM 300s

The 3Color® HM300s Hazemeter is designed for use with plastic sheets, films, glass, LCD panels, touchscreens, and other transparent and translucent materials with small dimensions or curved shapes. The HM300s measures transmittance, haze, and color.

The instrument complies with ASTM and ISO standards and uses various types of A, C, and D65 light sources. The HM300s features an open measurement area with no restrictions on sample size. The haze meter can perform transmittance compensation measurements, providing more accurate test results. It offers various optional accessories to meet the measurement requirements of films and liquids. The HM300s complies with ASTM D1003 / D1044, ISO 13468 / ISO 14782, ISO 7724/1, and ISO 11664 standards. PC Haze QC software is included free of charge.

Precision Where Other Devices Can’t Reach

The HM300s was designed for measuring small, narrow, and curved samples, ensuring reliable results even with challenging geometries. Measurement area (1 × 21 mm)

Haze and Transmittance Under Full Control

The simultaneous measurement of HAZE and transmission (transmittance) enables reliable assessment of the optical quality of films, glass, plastics, and optoelectronic components.

Higher Accuracy Through Transmittance Compensation

The transmittance compensation function improves the accuracy of the results, especially for materials with varying thicknesses and structures.

Light Source Replacement Port

The light source replacement port on the HM-300s enables quick and easy replacement, simplifying maintenance and ensuring measurement accuracy.

Touchscreen

The 7-inch touchscreen ensures easy reading of results as well as convenient and intuitive operation.

Navigation Panel

It provides quick access to functions and convenient operation of the device during measurements.

Measuring aperture

The device is equipped with interchangeable measurement apertures with diameters of 5 mm, 7 mm, and 10 mm, allowing the measurement aperture to be adapted to the type of sample.

Compensation Aperture

Measurement with the compensation aperture provides even more accurate results, as it takes into account the influence of the material and measurement conditions.
