Throughput, resolution, stray light and power handling are comparable to many larger, more expensive monochromators. This series is designed to minimise astigmatic aberrations, for high instrument resolution.
Manual and automated monochromators are available with optional digital wavelength readout. Scanning monochromators are also provided in ranges from UV to NIR for applications where a wide variety of wavelengths are required to test a sample.
The advantages of using a diffraction grating over a prism in a monochromator are a high wavelength dependency on dispersion and a low temperature dependency. The monochromators can be used with a comparator and reticule to form a hand held spectrometer.
