NEXOS miniature spectrometers
The spectrometers in the Nexos series are no bigger than a deck of cards and have a light weight of 277.5 g. Nevertheless, depending on the configuration, a resolution of up to 0.06 nm can be achieved. Despite their small dimensions, Nexos spectrometers have a high dynamic range of 4500:1, a significant reduction in the stray light level (from 0.1%) and excellent temperature stability. Thanks to automated production, outstanding 1:1 reproducibility is guaranteed.
These features qualify the Nexos spectrometer for OEM customers, for integration and reliable operation in their devices. Please contact us to determine your individual configuration.
Software
The Nexos spectrometers are equipped with AvaSoft Basic software as standard. In addition, there are numerous software extensions for measuring color, irradiance, chemometrics, coating thickness, process control, etc. DLL libraries with programming examples are also available.
