 The GRAHAM line of  reflectometers can be configured to measure percent Reflectance at any of many fixed wavelengths in the near-ultraviolet, violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red, or infrared regions of the spectrum (either narrow band or broad band as requested at time of purchase). 

WHITE LIGHT Reflectometers

We also offer systems which employ white light sources-- thus permitting the insertion of a filter to inspect any region of the visible spectrum.  Typical accuracy of +/-0.2 % is achieved.

No need to operate the instrument in a darkened room!

The instruments all feature an electronically chopped  test beam for maximum accuracy and independence from ambient lighting conditions.  They are easy to use, stable in operation, and provide highly reproducible readings

INFRARED and ULTRAVIOLET Reflectometers

We also offer reflectometers in both infrared and ultraviolet .  Please inquire for specific wavelengths required.  Listed below are some of the features and benefits provided by the Model R200V Reflectometer
 

FEATURE
BENEFITS

Instrument design and operation

All instruments are similar in appearance to that shown in the photograph.  Some features may vary with model.  Potential customers are encouraged to inquire about any special features which may be needed for their application.  A number of customized modifications are available at little additional cost.

Operation

In operation, the instrument is set to read 0% reflectance by closing an aperture which isolates the light source from the detector.  Then, using a reflectance standard appropriate to the customer's application, the reflectance reading is set to the specified level.  Thereafter readings of reflectance are shown directly on the 4-1/2 digit LCD or LED display.
