FLEX+
A General Purpose Spectrometer with a Plus in Sensitivity and Speed
Ideal for Low Light-Level Applications
Equipped with High-Sensitivity CCD Detector
User-Interchangeable Slits and Optical Filters
UV-Vis-NIR (185-1100 nm)
Fast Acquisition – Up to 2587 Spectra per Second
LightScan 2.0 Software Included
Flexible and Fast
In addition to the great performance and flexibility of the FLEX series, the FLEX+ series is a more sensible solution for low-light-level applications that require high performance and a wide dynamic range such as low emissive fluorescence measurements. The Hamamatsu back-thinned CCD detector has 1-mm height pixel elements, which provides higher sensitivity and delivers high quantum efficiency (around 80% at the maximum) with a great signal-to-noise ratio.
Simple and Flexible
This spectrometer combines high sensitivity, fast acquisition (up to 2587 spectra per second), and features such as power status indicators, user-interchangeable slits and optical filters, or plug-and-play operation. This way, the FLEX+ delivers simplicity and versatility to all the setups that include this system. FLEX+ spectrometer is available in a ready-to-use (for more common applications) and user-customized (for more specific applications) configuration for narrow UV-Vis and Visible-NIR range and extended UV-Vis-NIR range.
Key Features
Setup Examples
Absorbance
-
LS-DW is a compact, reliable, and powerful tungsten-halogen light source, ideal for Absorbance / Transmittance applications, covering visible and near-infrared regions.
-
Patch cords are fused silica-core optical fibers optimized for transporting light in a defined wavelength range.
-
The standard cuvette holder was specially designed for accommodating 10 mm pathlength cuvettes.
Reflectance
-
LS-DWHP is a powerful and stable light source that combines the continuous spectrum of two high-power deuterium and tungsten lamps in a single optical fiber SMA connector, which features an adjustable focusing lens assembly.
-
Reflectance probes are used to obtain spectral information from reflectance measurements of surfaces and powders.
-
The standard probe holder is a robust and simple-to-use mechanical tool made with black anodized aluminum for securing the probe tip with a fixed distance when measuring the reflectance spectra and color of flat and slightly curved surfaces.
Fluorescence
-
LS-LED is a compact LED light source with user interchangeable LEDs that provides a stable and high-power spectral output of multiple wavelengths for fluorescence measurements and other applications requiring narrowband illumination.
-
Patch cords are fused silica-core fibers optimized for transporting light in a defined wavelength range.
-
The multi-purpose cuvette holder is a versatile cuvette holder with interchangeable filters and larger optics for added sensitivity in fluorescence applications but with the flexibility to be a great solution also for absorbance and transmittance measurements.
