Overview- Compact 20°/60°/85° glossmeter for measurements from matt to mirror finishes.
- Simultaneous multi-angle measurement for high, universal and low gloss applications.
- Includes ISO 17025 (UKAS) traceable calibration standards and calibration certificate.
Application and Angle GuidanceThe Novo-Gloss Trio is suitable for gloss measurement across coatings, paints, plastics, metals and other finished surfaces. Use 60° for routine/universal measurements, 20° for high-gloss finishes requiring higher resolution, and 85° for low-gloss or grazing-angle measurements and textured surfaces.
Key Features- Simultaneous reporting of GU (gloss units) or % reflectivity with date/time and sample ID.
- Full batch statistics (mean, min, max, standard deviation) and graphical trend display.
- User-definable batch names, batch sizes and Pass/Fail limits for instant non-conformance identification.
- Automatic interval measurements for area surveys and fast USB data transfer; device-compatible app and Bluetooth support.
- Internal memory (~2,000 readings) and long-life rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
