LICO690 Liquid colorimeter

Application industries:

• The LICO690 liquid colorimeter provides corresponding color analysis solutions for color measurement needs in laboratories and industrial production.

• In various fields of the chemical industry, such as surfactants, oils, fats, resins, and synthetic resins, the LICO690 colorimeter can be used for quality and production control evaluation.

Instrument features:

• ● Effortlessly handles color measurement

• Spectrophotometric color measurement of liquid samples is indispensable in many industries. As color is a quality control parameter for certain solvents, coatings, pharmaceuticals, and food products, measurement reliability is crucial. HACH has over 25 years of expertise in spectrophotometer development, perfectly integrated into the LICO colorimeter product line, providing users with simple, fast, and reliable color measurement.

• ● Built-in all important color scales

• The LICO 690 colorimeter is easy to operate and flexible, suitable for a wide range of industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, oils, and food and beverage. The colorimeter has 26 built-in color scales: including traditional color scales such as iodine, Hazen (platinum-cobalt), Gardner, and pharmacopoeia, as well as specific color scales such as Saybolt, AOCS, and ASTM. Compared to the LICO 620 colorimeter, which has 5 color scales and is designed for rapid routine measurement in laboratories and production processes, the LICO690 colorimeter has a wider range of applications and is an upgraded version of the LICO620 colorimeter.

Ethernet connection

By connecting to Ethernet, the LICO colorimeter can be integrated into an existing laboratory network, facilitating operation and data processing.

• ● High measurement reliability

• The LICO690 colorimeter is equipped with certified filters, reusable color standard solutions, and AQA (Analytical Quality Assurance), ensuring measurement reliability. Measured values can be converted using all built-in color standards, even archived spectral data.

Simple operation

• When the sample tube is inserted, the colorimeter identifies the measuring cell and the measurement process starts automatically, ensuring high work efficiency and minimal measurement error;

• The easily replaceable cuvette compartment facilitates cleaning or replacement;

• The color touchscreen, with simple and intuitive operation navigation menu, provides comprehensive and intuitive test instructions, reducing familiarization time so users can start operating right away.
