Good Price Synthetic Diamond Screener (SDS II) separates syntetic (lab-grown) diamonds from natural diamonds Purchase Now!

Identifies Synthetic (Lab-Grown) Diamonds (CVD/HPHT Diamonds) including mounted diamonds, through measurement of UV absorption.

The Synthetic Diamond Screener is developed by Presidium to help screen out Type IIa colorless diamond, which is likely to be synthetic and created through chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or high pressure high temperature (HPHT) syntheses, from the natural Type Ia colorless diamond.

When subjected to this deep UV irradiation, Type Ia and Type IIa diamonds each absorb different amount of UV light. Type IIa diamonds allow deeper UV light to pass through and thus its UV light absorption ability is low. This difference in the light absorption is significant enough to aid in differentiating between colorless Type Ia and Type IIa diamonds.

Features

Advanced technology that measures a diamond’s UV light transmittance ability
2 colour coded (blue/red) indicator light bars to give a low or high reading of UV light absorption with blue light indicating Natural Diamond and red light indicating Type IIa Diamond
Instantaneous clear results within 6 seconds
Exterior base foam padding to ensure non-slip sturdiness and prevent scratches to surfaces
Stream-lined ergonomic design that enhances portability and stability
Low battery indicator
Energy-saving auto power-off of device after 10 minutes without operation
Interior LED light source and testing area
Energy-saving auto power-off of interior LED light source when lid of device is open or when Start Test button is not activated
USB port for alternative power source and connectivity
