The CS‑380 is a professional-grade gloss meter designed for high-accuracy gloss measurements across high-gloss, semi-gloss, and matte surfaces. Featuring three standard angles (20°, 60°, and 85°) in one device, it is ideal for coatings, plastics, paints, and industrial finishes requiring multi-angle gloss evaluation.
Fully compliant with global standards:
DIN 67530, ISO 2813, ASTM D523, JIS Z8741, BS 3900 Part D5, and JJG 696-2002.
Key Features
1. Triple-Angle Versatility (20°, 60°, 85°)
Provides flexible gloss evaluation across a range of surface finishes:
20° for high-gloss
60° for general-purpose gloss
85° for matte/low-gloss surfaces
2. Ultra Stable & Precise
Incorporates Japanese sensors and a US processor chip for industry-leading performance.
Meets JJG 696 Class I glossmeter standards.
Every unit is supplied with a metrology certification from the State Key Metrology Laboratory (China).
3. Rigorously Tested (Patent No.: ZL2012201796876)
Tested for:
412 calibration points
43,200 stability measurements
110 hours of accelerated ageing
17,000 vibration tests
4. Robust & Ergonomic Casing
Constructed using Dow Corning TiSLV: an antimicrobial, UV-resistant, hypoallergenic elastomer for enhanced user comfort and long-term durability.
5. Powerful Battery and Connectivity
High-density 3000 mAh lithium battery powers up to 54,300 readings per charge.
Connects via USB to PC software for easy data transfer and detailed reporting.
Bluetooth optional.
