Product Overview
Presidium’s Synthetic Diamond Screener II (SDS II) is a portable desktop diamond verification instrument developed to help screen out Type IIa colourless diamond from Type Ia colourless diamond. It is suitable for both loose and mounted stones (with open-back setting), including melees as small as 0.02ct.
The Presidium’s Synthetic Diamond Screener II (SDS II) uses advanced technology that measures a diamond’s UV light transmittance ability. Easy to use and battery-operated, its indicator light bars give a blue light to indicate that the stone is a natural Type la colorless diamond and red light to indicate a Type IIa colorless diamond, which is likely to be laboratory-grown and created through chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or high pressure high temperature (HPHT) syntheses. The device gives clear and accurate results within two seconds.
Presidium’s Synthetic Diamond Screener (SDS II) has been ASSURE TESTED by an independent third party through ASSURE program and achieved 100% Laboratory-Grown Diamond Referral Rate.
Product comes with 1 year warranty.
