The LS171 Colorimeter is a portable, handheld color measurement instrument used for accurate color determination and comparison on various materials. It’s designed for quality control and color management in industries where colour consistency is critical — beyond what the eye alone can judge.
🔬 Key Features
✔ Portable Smart Colorimeter
Compact handheld device with Bluetooth connectivity — works with a mobile app (LSColor) for storing and analyzing color data.
Built-in OLED display lets you view basic results directly without a phone.
✔ Accurate Color Measurement
Uses D/8 geometry with Specular Component Included (SCI) — good for consistent surface color readings.
Full-spectrum LED illumination ensures reliable color capture.
✔ Multi-Functional and Smart
Stores large amounts of color data and enables building personal color libraries on the app.
Supports color comparison and quality control (QC) with set thresholds for ΔE values.
Color data can be shared/exported via social apps (WeChat, email, etc.).
✔ Multiple Color Spaces & Formulas
Measures in CIE Lab, CIE Luv, LCh, Yxy, CMYK, RGB, Hex color spaces.
Supports standard color difference formulas like ΔEab, ΔE94, ΔEcmc, ΔE00, etc.
