Portable Colorimetric and Near-Infrared Measurement
45IR
Specialized for Security
The Datacolor 45IR provides a unique
3-in-1 solution for the formulation and quality
control of security inks, secure documents and
document authentication. A world class portable
spectrometer, a VIS-NIR spectroscopic sensor
and a densitometer; the Datacolor 45IR offers
a powerful combination of performance and
value. Ideal for color management, formulation
and inspection in the printing of secure
documents where color control is critical and
fraud protection is very important.
Specialized Precision, Uncompromising Performance
SPECIFIC FUNCTIONALITY FOCUSED ON SECURITY
The Datacolor 45IR is uniquely qualified to fulfill the particular requirements of the security printing industry. Combing a spectral range of 380-1100 nm with the
industry standard 3mm aperture and 0°:45°x geometry, this instrument is specifically designed to provide unparalleled quality control and formulation for the
secure printing industry. In addition, instrument functionality provides industry critical Colorimetric, Near Infrared and Densiometric measurements – all in one
instrument. The best in class performance provides state of the art repeatability and inter-instrument agreement ensuring total confidence in your answer.
Ultimate Ease of Use
THOUGHTFUL DESIGN
New lightweight, ergonomic design delivers enhanced ease of use. Patented measuring head ensures exact
sample positioning, providing enhanced precision and inter-instrument agreement.
