86163 Transmission Meter
Ideal for testing window tint, window films, and side windshields
Three light sources: visible light, ultraviolet (UV), and infrared (IR)
Three display modes available
Rotatable screen for easy data viewing
Compatible with metallic and ceramic films
This device is designed to measure the optical properties of uniform, transparent materials such as solar films, film-coated glass, insulated glass, and automotive side windows. Users can select different display interfaces to view infrared and ultraviolet rejection rates, as well as light transmittance.
The 86163 Transmission Meter is widely used in industries such as solar film production, glass manufacturing, automotive dealerships, and car detailing shops. It is suitable for display, manufacturing, quality control, and inspection applications. The device can measure the optical properties of solar film, film-laminated glass, PC materials, and window glass.

FAQ
-
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.
