PCE Instruments PCE-CSM 2 Handheld Colorimeter

Overview

The PCE Instruments PCE-CSM 2 is a handheld colorimeter designed for quality control across various industrial sectors. It features an 8mm measuring aperture with 45°/0° geometry and a D65 LED light source. The device measures color spectra using a silicon photoelectric diode sensor and supports multiple CIE color spaces (L*a*b*C*h, L*a*b, XYZ). The ergonomic design allows for vertical measurement without placing the entire device on the object, making it ideal for measuring damp objects, textiles, and food products.
