Overview
Designed to measure gloss on small, curved or hard-to-reach surfaces, the Novo-Gloss Flex 60 combines advanced glossmeter reporting with an ultra-lightweight remote measuring head. It includes a dedicated high-resolution scale for low-gloss finishes and interchangeable adaptors to match component geometry.

Key features

• 60° gloss measurement for small footprint and curved surfaces
• Remote, ultra-lightweight measuring head with integrated measurement buttons for single‑handed use
• On‑board statistics, pass/fail and graphical trend analysis
• Bluetooth and USB data transfer for easy export
• Enhanced low-gloss resolution (GUh mode) for improved accuracy on matte finishes
• Interchangeable standard and steel/magnetic adaptors; custom adaptors available

Measurement capabilities

• 60° gloss (GU): 0–125 GU, resolution 0.1 GU; repeatability ±0.2 GU; reproducibility ±0.5 GU
• Low-gloss scale (GUh): 0–125 GUh (equiv. 0–12.5 GU), resolution 0.1 GUh (0.01 GU); repeatability ±0.5 GUh (0.05 GU); reproducibility ±2.0 GUh (0.2 GU)
• Measurement area (60°): 6 mm × 12 mm

Operation and analysis

• Full-colour display with adjustable brightness
• 6-button touch-sensitive interface
