The comparator is constructed as a single unit for desktop use in aluminum metal body. It is equipped with a built-in RFID reader. The device has a spacious working area over the object stage, clamps for fixing examined documents and a special shield protecting from harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation.

The device is operated via the front panel with control buttons or/and Regula Forensic Studio software. The control buttons are responsible for the activation of light sources and adjustment of camera parameters in different examination modes. The latter are displayed on the LCD display.

Video spectral comparator Regula 4305DMH is equipped with a torch and a modified 10x magnifier Regula 1003M with two white light sources. The front panel of the device has a port for connection of a UV bottom lighter, three available USB-2.0 ports — for additional external devices, such as a spectral luminescent magnifier Regula 4147 used in anti-Stokes examination, thermostage Regula 4168 or a magneto-optical visualizer Regula 4197.
