Ideal for the laboratory or plant floor, the model TOM-11 is a simple-to-use, off-line
instrument that indicates relative opacity and relative transmittance of plastic
film, paper, laminates, printed packaging and other materials. With a single pass
of the light source through your material, the system measures relative light transmission
on a scale of 0 to 100 Opacity Units, representing perfectly transparent to purely
opaque materials, respectively.
Using an LED light source, the TOM-11 measures light attenuation due to the material.
Results can be reported as either relative transmittance or as opacity units (selectable),
with resolution to 0.1%. Can be used as a stand-alone unit, or with Windows software
by USB cable connection. Easy to use Windows software for data capture and data
graphics is included with the system. Automatic calibration during startup.
