Klein Instruments K-10A Colorimeter
Note: This is a special order item. Please contact us for availability and lead times.
Step up to the industry standard in display calibration with the Klein Instruments K-10A Colorimeter. Long regarded as the definitive tool for professionals, the K-10A delivers a powerful combination of speed, sensitivity, and rugged reliability that is simply unmatched. Its enhanced optics provide a 3X advantage in sensitivity over the original K-10 SF, setting a new benchmark for performance in demanding environments.
Engineered for maximum efficiency, the K-10A is renowned for its superior measurement speed. It can stream intensity data in a blistering 3.2 milliseconds and capture full XYZ color data in just 125 milliseconds, dramatically reducing measurement time in manufacturing and quality control workflows. This speed is paired with extreme sensitivity and color accuracy. Equipped with large 5mm x 5mm photodiodes, the probe excels in extremely low-light conditions, measuring accurately down to an incredible 0.00006 cd/m². Each thermally stable and highly linear diode is layered with specialized absorption filters, ensuring the f1’ of Y, X, and Z are all exceptionally precise for true-to-life color analysis.
Beyond color and luminance, the K-10A also functions as a powerful FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) flicker meter. It can analyze any light source, measuring flicker between 1-150Hz and supporting multiple standards like JEITA and VESA. This makes it an indispensable tool for identifying and resolving issues from monitor refresh rates to current variations in LEDs. Built to withstand the rigors of 24/7 use, the K-10A features a rugged housing of machined aluminum and high-impact plastic. Its compact size, light weight, and universal tripod mount ensure it can be easily transported and integrated into any professional setup. When precision and performance are non-negotiable, the Klein K-10A is the proven choice of experts worldwide.
