The CM-5 makes color measurements simple. Just switch it on and start taking measurements. No need to bother with a computer;
the CM-5 has a full range of advanced functions including specialized indices for a variety of applications and a large color display
that makes results easy to read.
Finally, high accuracy and ease of use in a compact top-port spectrophotometer!
Mini Petri Dish
(optional accessory) enables
measurements of small sample
amounts.
Automatic white•calibration

Internal calibration curves for measuring standard
chemical/pharmaceutical indices
The CM-5 can measure several of the standard
color indices commonly used in the chemical and
pharmaceutical eld: Gardner, Platinum-Cobalt
Color Scale (Hazen/ APHA), Iodine Color Number,
European Pharmacopoeia and US Pharmacopeia
(equivalent to Japanese Pharmacopoeia color
indices). Calibration curves*1 for these indices are
stored in the CM-5, so measurements of samples
based on these indices can be performed quickly and easily by anyone.
*1 Index calibration curves were measured using 10mm-Wide Cell Measurement Set
CM-A207 and commercially available 10mm-wide cells with 10mm optical path length.
Ø16mm Mini Petri Dish
for small sample amounts (Optional accessory)
The optional Mini Petri Dish enables measurements of costly
powder samples such as rare-earth metals, organic EL materi-
als, pharmaceuticals, etc. to be taken using much less sample
material (approximately 1/20 of amounts required using our
conventional Petri Dish CM-A128). In addition, the automatic
white calibration function also works with the Mini Petri Dish,
so measurements can be taken shortly after switching the in-
strument on without performing calibration manually.
Do many people in your lab use the same
instrument? The CM-5 helps eliminate
that confusion by letting users store their
own settings on their own USB memory
stick, so they can restore the settings they
need by simply reading from the memory
stick instead of going through and redo-
ing settings individually. Afterwards when
they’re nished, they can store measurement and target data on the same
USB key and take it with them for further analysis.
Measurements as simple as 1-2-3!
Just follow the wizard!
Avoid multi-user confusion with USB!
Compact, versatile color instru ment
Reectance measurements
The measuring port of the CM-5 is on top, so users can just place a solid object on
the port and press the MEAS. button. There’s no need to clamp the sample in a
sample holder, and there’s no worry about the sample shifting position.
And, by using a Petri dish (optional accessory), liquids, pastes, and powders can
also be measured easily.
Samples are just
placed on top, so
even large samples
can be measured.
By using the Ø3mm
target mask (op-
tional accessory),
even small samples
can be measured.
Pastes can also be
measured using a
Petri dish (optional
accessory).
Colorant pellets
can be measured
in raw form using a
Petri dish (optional
accessory).

Transmittance measurements
The CM-5’s transmittance chamber is
large and sideless, enabling measure-
ments of even large sample sheets
with thicknesses up to 60mm.
For liquids, optional cells with 3 opti-
cal path lengths for dierent sample
densities are available, and commercial
10mm-wide cells can also be used.
Switch on power.
The CM-5 starts up and automatically per-
forms white/100% calibration* using an inter-
nal white calibration plate behind the shutter.
* Not applicable to liquid transmittance measurements us-
ing cells.
Position sample.
For reectance, the top port makes measuring
samples of various shapes and sizes easy. For
transmittance, sliding open the CM-5 reveals
a large transmittance chamber. Liquids can be
measured using optional cells.
Press MEAS.
The measurement is taken and the results ap-
pear in the display. The large color LCD en-
ables data to be shown not only numerically,
but also on the colorimetric plots and spectral
graphs that normally require a computer to
display.

Even beginners can take measurements
easily without mistakes.
The CM-5’s wizard mode guides users
through each step, helping users to make
settings and take measurements without
having to get out the instruction manual
each time.

Spectral absorbance can now be measured and displayed numerically or graphi-
cally, enabling evaluation of spectral absorbance for checking absorbance wave-
lengths, evaluating colorants, calculating K/S, determining components, etc.
