MiniScan EZ Features
The MiniScan EZ spectrophotometer is a versatile color measurement instrument that can be used on
products of virtually any size, and in industries as diverse as paint and textiles. Because of its compact
design and portability, MiniScan EZ can be used to measure objects that would be difficult to position
at the measurement port of a larger color instrument normally found in a laboratory, and in locations
other than a laboratory.

The instrument uses a xenon flash lamp to illuminate the sample. The light reflected from the sample
is then separated into its component wavelengths through a dispersion grating. The relative intensities
of the light at different wavelengths along the visible spectrum (400-700 nm) are then analyzed to
produce numeric results indicative of the color of the sample. This is an objective means of quantifying
what was once considered a subjected aspect of a sample’s appearance— its color.
Note: Use of this equipment in a manner not specified by the manufacturer may impair the
protection afforded by the equipment. Take care not to drop the MiniScan EZ. If it is
dropped, have it evaluated for damage before operation.
MiniScan EZ is available in four different models based on viewing area and geometry. A label on the
bottom of the instrument provides this information.
