AvaSpec-HERO
The AvaSpec-HERO is the answer for those who are in need of high resolution and high sensitivity! This spectrometer combines the best of both worlds, so no compromise is needed.
The AvaSpec-HERO is built around our High-Sensitivity, Compact (HSC), 100mm optical bench offering a NA of 0.13 and a cooled, back-thinned detector (1024×58 pixels). Electronics-wise, it uses our latest AS7010 board, which includes a high-performance Analog to Digital converter with excellent noise performance and the ability of high-speed communication through USB 3.0 and Ethernet.
The combination of these two state-of-the-art components will give you an excellent instrument, offering the ideal balance between sensitivity and resolution and the capability of using longer integration times in low-light applications yet ensuring perfect signal-to-noise performance, transferred by the latest communication standards. A real HERO for your application! Find out why a recent OEM customer from the food industry had this to say:
We knew almost right away after using the HERO that it’s a superior instrument, but it is becoming even more apparent just how much better it is in virtually every aspect of performance.
The Avaspec-HERO is suitable for use with replaceable slits, offering optimum flexibility for various applications. The combination of all the above features makes the AvaSpec-Hero your ideal companion for all your spectroscopic measurements.
