NCS S 0515-R10B can be broken down into four components:

S stands for standardized, meaning that the color is part of the NCS standard collection of 1950 colors.
0515 indicates the chromaticness and lightness of the color.
The first two digits (05) represent the percentage of blackness, which is the inverse of lightness.
The lower the number, the lighter the color.
The last two digits (15) represent the percentage of chromaticness, which is the intensity or saturation of the color.
R10B indicates the hue of the color.
The letter (R) represents the main hue, which is red in this case.
The number (10) represents the nuance of the hue, which is how much of the adjacent hue (yellow or blue) is mixed with the main hue.
The higher the number, the more of the adjacent hue is present.

The letter (B) represents the complementary hue, which is blue in this case.

To summarize, NCS S 0515-R10B is a light and vivid pink color with a slight blue nuance.

It is part of the NCS standard collection of colors and has a logical notation based on human color perception.
