New High Sensitivity Compact NIR Spectrometer
Mar 10 2015
Avantes, leading innovator in the field of spectroscopy, have introduced a new NIR spectrometer with more sensitivity, less weight and less size. Based on a 100mm optical bench with a NA of 0.13, this instrument offers optimal balance between resolution and sensitivity.
The –HSC offers improved sensitivity, less weight and less size. A range of gratings are available offering the possibility to tailor the instrument for optimal performance in your application. This instrument is perfect for instance for grain, corn, wheat, soya and other analysis.
The Avaspec-NIR 256-HSC is equipped with a replaceable slit which offers you great flexibility in your experiment. A range of gratings are available to tailor the instrument for optimal performance in your application Also available on the –HSC is the user selectable gain setting mode: LN (low- noise, standard setting), which gives you a longer integration time and higher signal to noise ratio, or HS (high-sensitivity) for measuring in low-light conditions.
Avantes offers a wide range of NIR spectrometers. The 2.x-series extended InGaAs instruments feature 256 or 512 pixel detectors and are available in configurations enabling measurements up to 2000, 2200 and 2500 nm.
