RD-20 Tint Meter

Tint meters are designed to provide the user the ability to measure windshields, rear windows, and any flat glass surface. With nearing to cent percent accuracy, these tint metres can measure the darkest windows to clearest glass.

It is a specialized electronic device used to measure the Visible Light Transmission (VLT) percentage of tinted glass or window films installed on vehicles and buildings. It is widely used by traffic police, law enforcement agencies, automobile inspection departments, and security authorities to verify whether vehicle window tint complies with legal regulations. The device helps determine how much visible light passes through the glass, ensuring that excessively dark tints, which may reduce visibility and compromise safety, are identified quickly and accurately.

Modern tint meters operate using optical sensor technology that measures the amount of light transmitted through the glass. The device is usually compact, portable, and easy to use, with two sensor units placed on opposite sides of the glass surface. Within seconds, the tint meter displays the VLT percentage digitally. Advanced models may include high-precision sensors, wireless connectivity, rechargeable batteries, data storage, and calibration functions for improved accuracy and performance. Tint meters are commonly used during traffic inspections, vehicle fitness checks, automobile manufacturing, and quality control processes.

Tint meters play an important role in maintaining road safety and legal compliance by ensuring that vehicle window films meet permitted transparency standards. Their portability, fast operation, and precise measurement capabilities make them essential tools for traffic authorities and automotive inspection professionals.
