The Tintometer Lovibond® comparator 2000+ comparator is the key component of a unique colorimetric chemical analysis system which is portable, accurate and equally suited to laboratory or field use.
The system comprises:
- Lovibond® 2000+ Comparator
- Glass colour standards discs
- Tablet or liquid reagents
The comparator itself incorporates a prism unit and integrated large cell attachment (for cells up to 40mm path length). Although robust, it is pocket sized and lightweight, in a solvent- and acid-resistant material. The discs are simply inserted from the side in cassette fashion, making it a simple operation to change discs when required.
Please note accessory discs, cells and reagent tablets or solutions are required for operation.
