Tint Meter TNM50

Triplett TNM50 Tint Meter – Light Transmittance Measurement Tool

The Triplett TNM50 Tint Meter is a professional instrument designed to measure the transmittance of light through automotive windows, films, coatings, glass, plastics, and other transparent or semi-transparent materials. It’s an essential tool for safety testing, quality control, and compliance inspections.

With a 0 to 100% transmittance range and a 0 to 1/4" (0 to 6.5mm) thickness range, the TNM50 delivers accurate results with an ±2% accuracy rating. Its 3-digit, 999-count LCD provides clear readings, while the power-on self-calibration ensures reliable performance every time.

Convenient features such as automatic data hold (locks the reading for 30 seconds), auto-shutdown to conserve battery life, and a continuous-use mode for extended testing make it versatile for field and lab use. The kit includes a receiver, transmitter, standard transmittance sheets, CR2032 batteries, and carrying case.
