Spectrometer VS70
|
The VS 70 spectrometer is a high resolution, small, portable, and rugged low cost linear array spectrometer (download datasheet (147kB)). It covers the wavelength range of 200 to 900 nm. The spectrometer can be equipped with different line detectors (e.g. Hamamatsu S 9840, S837x, S390x) and hence tailored for the specific application. The device has a high throughput (f/2) and very low straylight.
It communicates via true USB 2.0 plug and play interface.
The unit is powered by USB (self powered hub or PC). |
 |
The spectrometer can be operated with the intuitive measuring software VersaSpec (for a demo version see Software Section). The VersaSpec software measures reference, absorbance, transmission/ reflection and allows different spectra calculations. Another feature of the software is the real time export to Excel.
