HR-X Hi-Res Spectrometer Features
- Resolutions better than 0.05nm!
- Increased optical path provides 2x resolutions over regular HR models
- UV-VIS and NIR/WDM options
- Units are stackable for wide range analysis
- Best resolutions available over 800nm
Our new HR-X Hi-Res Spectrometer Series consists of our highest resolution spectrometers yet with many models over the UV, VIS, & NIR wavelength range. Compared to our standard HR and BLUE-Wave series, our HR-X enclosures have 2x and 4x the optical path providing double and quadruple the potential optical resolving power. This enhancement does decrease the range and increase its physical size; however, the HR-X Hi Res spectrometers provide the best possible resolution of any modular spectrometer with no moving parts. Applications include laser wavelength monitoring and characterization for tunable lasers/LEDs and other sources such as elemental emissions from plasma, LIBS, or other high powered optical emissions. Also, optical sensing of temperature, pressure, & position are enabled via Bragg grating technology.
Ruggedized – The detachable spectrograph assembly and control electronics are protected inside a rugged metal enclosure, suitable for portable, process, lab, and field applications.
Onboard Memory with pre-set calibrations and spectrometer settings and snap shot memory to provide instantaneous spectral image from the highly sensitive CCD with 2048.
High Speed Electronic Interface can be attached directly to a computers USB port for high speed data transfer. Options for Wifi/ethernet communication available as well as other interfaces. ContactUs@StellarNet.us for more info.
