New Spectrophotometer for Colour Assessment of Fuels & Waxes

Aug 15 2009

Tintometer’s (Germany) new Lovibond® PFXi spectrophotometer heralds the introduction of a unique concept in colour measurement technology for liquids. For the first time this type of equipment offers the capability for remote calibration and servicing via the internet and directly by the manufacturer. The complete series of PFXi Spectrocolorimeters are easy to use with no need to build up calibration curves as they are already established in the instruments.

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.

All PFXi instruments include new RCMSi technology (Remote Calibration & Maintenance Service via internet). This unique feature allows a calibrated measurement to be taken using an ISO17025 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.
