• Quest: 200-1050nm, CCD array, low cost
• Compass X: 200-1050nm, CCD array, TE-cooled
• Cypher H: 185-1050nm, Photodiode array (PDA), high dynamic range
• Prime X: 190-1050nm, Back-thinned CCD, TE-cooled, high sensitivity
• i-trometer: 190-1050nm, Back-thinned CCD, low stray light
• Sol: 900-2600nm, InGaAs array, TE-cooled

Product Highlights:

• Optics, grating, detector and electronics are housed in a compact package with no moving parts
• User configurable slits and gratings to suit your wavelength range and resolution requirements
• TE-cooled models for improved sensitivity and dynamic range
• Fibre optic input (SMA905)
• Easy operation using the BWSpec software for system control and data acquisition
• Fully portable – optional external battery pack for in-field use

A wide range of sampling accessories are available, including fibre optic patch cords, integrating spheres, light sources, external battery pack, cuvette holder, etc.

These compact spectrometers are suitable for many diverse applications such as transmittance, absorbance, reflectance, Raman spectroscopy, colour measurement, LED sorting and characterisation etc. They are also ideal optical building blocks for OEM system builders.
