Description
Obstacles can be avoided or eliminated – provided you have the flexibility to act. The new housing structure of the MCS FLEX now allows much more flexible integration of the spectrometer module into your measuring systems and overcomes all obstacles.
The MCS FLEX employs an imaging grating, an optical input and a CCD or PDA sensor array. The core of the spectrometer is a blazed flat-field grating for light dispersion and imaging. The overall configuration results in a spectral pixel pitch of 0.8 nm / pixel, enabling a spectral resolution of better than 3 nm, in accordance with the Rayleigh criterion. The optical input is an SMA connector with an integrated fiber cross section converter.
All of the optical components are mounted in a housing made of a special alloy. The housing can now be placed to the users’ measuring systems with much more flexibility.
The special alloy of the housing completes the excellent thermal properties of the MCS FLEX. With their compact size and low weight, the spectrometer modules are ideally suited for mobile measuring systems. Their excellent thermal stability and very low amount of stray light ensure reliable measuring results even in rough environments.
Depending on the sensor array, the modules are offered as MCS FLEX CCD (190 – 980 nm) or MCS FLEX PDA (190 – 1015 nm).
