User Manual

86163A window film transmission meter is an instrument for measuring the optical properties of uniform and transparent materials such as solar film, glass with film, heat-insulating glass and automobile side windsheild glass. We can select the measurement interface to display the infrared and ultraviolet rejection and transmittance.

86163A window film transmission meter is mainly suitable for various solar film, glass manufacturers, car 4S shops, car beauty shops and other occasions. In addition to solar film and heat insulation film, it can also be used to measure various stick-film glass, automobile side glass and PC materials.

FAQ

  1. 1. The difference between 86163 (940nm) and 86163A (1400nm) window film transmission meters

    The main difference between 86163 and 86163A is that the peak wavelength of the built-in infrared light source is different, 86163: 940nm, 86163A: 1400nm. These two wavelengths are more representative, most of the absorption film has a better rejection effect at 940nm. The metallic film (insulation by reflecting heat) has a better rejection effect at 1400nm. Please choose the appropriate model according to your own film.

  2. 2. What are the advantages of 86163/86163A over previous window film transmission meters?

    The screen can rotate in four directions; 

    Three display interfaces can be switched: 

    1) UV rejection, IR rejection, VL transmittance

    2) UV transmission, IR transmission, VL transmittance

    3) VL transmittance
