haze-gard i

The objective standard for a clear view

Transparency of a product is influenced by the absorption and scattering behavior of the specimen. Visually transparency is described by two phenomena: Haze and Clarity.

The haze-gard i haze meter measures all transparency parameters in one instrument: total transmission, haze and clarity. Additionally, it simultaneously displays the results according to the ASTM and ISO standard test methods. The outstanding precision and reliability of the haze-gard i, as well as its ease of use, have made the haze meter the standard for transparency measurement in the glass, plastic, film and packaging industries.

Features / Equipment:

  • Simultaneous measurement of haze and transmission according to
    - ASTM D1003 – illuminants C and A (non-compensated method)
    - ISO 13468 – illuminant D65 (compensation method)
  • Open measurement compartment – quickly change and position small and large samples
  • Reference beam, self-diagnosis and enclosed optics ensure precise and reliable readings - any time
  • Automatic and long-term calibration allow easy and fast operation of the haze meter
