Description
The Ocean ST Vis Microspectrometer is a cutting-edge device that combines exceptional performance with a compact design. This powerful microspectrometer is engineered to deliver excellent UV response, high-speed spectral acquisition, and a high signal-to-noise ratio, all within an ultra-compact footprint. Despite its small size and lightweight construction, the Ocean ST compact spectrometer offers full spectral analysis capabilities that rival those of larger, more expensive spectrometers. This makes it an ideal choice for both everyday laboratory use and integration into devices and setups where space is at a premium.
The versatility of the Ocean ST visible spectrometer is further enhanced by its availability in different wavelength coverage options, including UV, visible, and shortwave NIR. This flexibility allows users to tailor the microspectrometer to a wide range of applications, from DNA absorbance to color characterization. Additionally, the replaceable slit design empowers users to optimize optical resolution and throughput according to their specific needs. Whether prioritizing resolution in light-rich environments or maximizing light intake in low-light conditions, the Ocean ST adapts to meet the demands of various scenarios.
Compatibility with Ocean Optics light sources, accessories, and OceanView software further extends the functionality of the Ocean ST microspectrometer. Users can seamlessly integrate it with other components to suit diverse applications. Its robust design, thermal stability, and consistent unit-to-unit reproducibility make it an attractive option for embedding into other instrumentation, inline process operations, and at-line quality control stations. The inclusion of OceanDirect, a comprehensive Software Developers Kit (SDK) with an Application Programming Interface (API), adds significant value by enabling users to optimize spectrometer performance and access critical data for analysis.
