The LCS-III spectrophotometer accurately measures the color of liquids that are meant to be clear. It more reliably determines the color of the liquid than visual evaluation. Its 22 integrated color scales, including Gardner, APHA or Hazen, ASTM D1500, and Pharmacopoeia, allows the instrument to measure a wide range of applications. Applications include beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, petroleum, and water.

The instrument features a color touch screen which displays clear instructions and spectral graphs of color measurement results. The instrument can archive 100 password protected user profiles with individual configurations making it ideal for multiple users since it.

LCS-III is measurements can be evaluated in all scales, even after the measurement has been archived. This instrument also automatically reminds users when calibration, service, or test filters are needed. The system stores up to 500 measured values and 50 color value references and each measurement only takes 7 seconds.

Clemson University: Understanding and Controlling Color
With the increasing diversity of products, product recognition is becoming more important. Along with product design, color is one of the major factors in creating a product image. It has a great effect on market appeal and sales.
The average consumer will not accept the color ranges that were the industry standard ten years ago. They are always searching for a better product - one that gives them the desired properties with a minimum of variation. Because of these requirements, companies are becoming increasingly concerned about color.
