The bar test chart is designed for checking the transmission characteristics of TV cameras at intermediate and deep frequencies.

In the upper part of the picture 4 black horizontal bars of different length are arranged in a white surrounding. The lower part is a mirror image to the upper one; however white bars are arranged in a black surrounding. A narrow vertical strip of black and white each are located in the center of the picture. These strips resp. bars generate puls signals of approx. 2 µs, 5 µs, 12 µs and 32 µs.

UTILIZATION

Inadequate transmission characteristics at intermediate and deep frequencies generate streaking effects in scanning line direction. Streaking may also be caused by defective clamping circuits. Long streaking (high error-time-constancy) are clearly visible at the monitor. Short streaking (low error-time-constancy) can be better observed in the oscillogram. For this purpose an oscilloscope with a line selector has to be used and the different bars may be observed one after the other. Also the adjustment of streaking (e.g. compensation of afterglow of flying spot scanners) should be effected with the aid of picture monitor and oscilloscope.

The narrow vertical strips in the center of the picture show echo disturbances, as may occur e.g. with defective delay lines in circuits for aperture corrections. The large black and white areas in both parts of the picture are designed to asses shadings, background structure and other errors. For this purpose the test chart may also be used upside down.

FAQs About  Other Charts

Colorimeters is a color measurement device that are used to capture, communicate, and evaluate color. Colorimeters are more affordable, portable, and easier to use, making them a suitable choice for basic color measurement applications, ideal for quick and routine tests.

spectrophotometers offer higher precision and comprehensive data analysis, are better for research, development, and when dealing with complex or highly precise requirements. The biggest difference is in capability and usage. Spectrophotometers are incredibly powerful and can offer more in-depth color measurements than a colorimeter, such as spectral data.

Colorimeters are primarily used for color quality control, while spectrophotometers are used for analysis and formulation. You can choose the appropriate color measurement equipment according to your application needs.


You should not attempt measuring on surfaces that are dirty, oily, or rough, as these surfaces will not provide an accurate reading. Always calibrate the paint thickness tester and make sure to select the proper probe for the substrate as well. Proper execution will bring about consistency as well as trustworthiness to the readings.


3nh Instrument Recommendation for Translucent Materials

1. YS6002 / YS6002-M Color & Haze Meter

Equipped with d/8° integrating sphere and D/0 transmission structure, it comprehensively tests color difference, haze, transmittance and yellowing index. Ideal for translucent film, frosted glass, milky plastic and liquid samples, perfectly suitable for laboratory and production quality control.

2. KS1500 / KS1510 Color Haze Meter

Adopts large integrating sphere and full-spectrum optical design, delivers stable diffuse transmission data. Specially optimized for thick translucent sheets and high-haze materials, ensuring accurate and consistent color measurement.

3. TS8560 Spectrophotometer

High-precision benchtop model with dual reflection & transmission measurement modes. Supports SCI/SCE detection, with excellent inter-instrument agreement, meeting strict color inspection standards for high-end translucent materials.

4. TS8510 Portable Spectrophotometer

Compact and portable, optional transmission accessory for fast on-site testing of thin translucent samples. Great for factory spot inspection and mobile quality checking.


Every 2,000 - 3,000 hours or manufacturer recommendation to maintain consistent light and color quality.

 The five common gloss levels are:

1. Flat/Matte (0–10 GU)

2. Eggshell (10–25 GU)

3. Satin (26–40 GU)

4. Semi-gloss (41–70 GU)

High Gloss (71–100+ GU)
These levels vary slightly depending on industry and standards used.


A magnetic induction gauge measures galvanized coatings by sensing the zinc coating on steel and iron. The measurement tells how thick the protective coating is. This is done to ensure the prevention of rusting.
