KEY FEATURES

Measuring Functions and Indices

The 964 provides absolute and difference measurements for the following colormetric systems.  These values can be obtained from any of the nine illuminants with 2° or 10° observer angle:  CIE XYZ, CIE Yxy, CIE LAB, Hunter LAB, CIE LCH, CMC and CIE94.  Whiteness and Yellowness per ASTM E313-98, Metamerism Index and DIN 6172.

Special JOB and PROJECT Modes

The JOB function is a programmed sequence of specific steps to assist the operator in the color measurement process.  Up to six lines of specific instructions per measurement routine can be downloaded from X-Rite software and displayed on the 964’s LCD screen.  Multiple color standards can also be collected under an identified PROJECT, a feature that supports corporate color standards programs.

Pass/Fail Mode

The 964 stores up to 1,024 standards with tolerances for easy pass/fail measurement.  A red/green LED indicator and the instrument’s LCD display provide visual confirmation of results.  A tone also sounds to indicate a fail result and measurement completion.

Interchangeable Apertures

The internal apertures can be quickly changed for 4mm, 7mm or 15mm measurement areas.  This allows the operator to change measurement area quickly and efficiently, depending on sample size.

Inter-Instrument Agreement

The 964 has superior inter-instrument agreement – essential in multiple instrument color-control programs.  The 964 offers excellent inter-instrument agreement with X-Rite 968 0/45 spectrophotometer.  Both input data into X-Rite® line of Windows-based color quality assurance and color formulation software.

Opacity, Color Strength and Shade Sorting

The 964 can measure opacity as well as three color-strength options:  chromatic, apparent and tri-stimulus calculations.  The 964 also performs 555 shade sorting.  These are important considerations in the color quality control of manufactured products involving plastics, painted or textile materials.

User-Friendly Ergonomics

A wrist strap and tactile side grips make the instrument easy to hold.  Read-outs are large and easy to see.  A rechargeable battery pack allows extended operation of the instrument.

Options include:

  • Remote battery charger
  • Rigs & Jigs (fixtures and accessories for standardized measurement of product samples)
  • Replacement rechargeable battery packs
  • Turnkey systems
  • Quality Assurance and Control Software
  • Color formulation software
  • UV filter 968-61-08
  • Extended service and support plan
