Comparator 3000
A Flexible, Modular System for Visual Color Grading
We are proud to announce that the Lovibond® Tintometer® Comparator 3000 and Petroleum Oil Comparator (AF650) have now been replaced by one brand new design designated the Comparator 3000/Petroleum AF650.
Our new units are a series of single scale, 3-field instruments for visually determining the color of samples by direct comparison with colored glass filters. With a 3-section field of view, the sample and two consecutive glasses on the color scale are viewed simultaneously, making it easier to achieve the optimum color match. For rapid color grading within predetermined color limits, the glasses can be set to the two limiting colors, making it easy to see if the sample is within tolerance.
