Product Name: CHEM4-UV-FIBER Spectrophotometer

Product Description

The CHEM4-UV-FIBER covers the 200-885 nm range, has optical resolution of 1.0 nm (FWHM) and captures 3648 wavelengths in <1 second. The system is ideal for relative irradiance and emission measurements.

The CHEM4-UV-FIBER combines a USB4000 Spectrometer with modular accessories including an ISS-UV-VIS Integrated Sampling System, a 300 µm solarization-resistant optical fiber and a 1-cm cuvette holder for absorbance measurements.

The advantage of an optical fiber based system is flexibility. Add accessories including reflectance probes and dip probes for even more measurement options.

The CHEM4-UV-FIBER is available for $4199.

Integrated deuterium tungsten halogen light source and cuvette holder

USB 2.0 interface for fast, hassle-free spectrometer-to-PC connection

Light Source and Sample Holder

The CHEM4-UV-FIBER setup uses the ISS-UV-VIS Integrated Sampling System, a combination RF deuterium source with a tungsten bulb in a housing connected to a holder for 1-cm cuvettes. The ISS-UV-VIS attaches to the spectrometer via a 300 µm solarization-resistant optical fiber. The advantage of this design is that the light source can be easily coupled to other fiber optic accessories such as reflection probes or transmission dip probes.

Programmable Microcontroller

The CHEM4-UV-FIBER uses our USB4000 Spectrometer. The USB4000 features an onboard programmable microcontroller that provides you with considerable flexibility in controlling the spectrometer and accessories. Through a 22-pin connector, you can implement all operating parameters in the software: control light sources, create processes, and retrieve information on external objects. You have access to 8 user-programmable digital Inputs/Outputs for interfacing to other equipment. (Contact an Applications Scientist regarding what you'll need to program the GPIOs.)

Modular Design

Ocean Optics offers complete line of fiber optic sampling accessories and teaching tools to further enhance your CHEM4-UV-FIBER system. Most accessories have SMA 905 connectors for application flexibility; changing the sampling system is as easy as unscrewing a connector and adding new components or accessories.

Plug-and-Play Operation

The CHEM4-UV-FIBER interfaces to a PC, PLC or other embedded controllers via USB 2.0 or RS-232 serial port. When using the serial port, the system requires a single 5-volt power supply (not included). Data unique to each spectrometer is programmed into a memory chip on the USB4000; our spectrometer operating software reads these values for easy setup and hot swapping among PCs.

Serial port operation tips: When using the serial port, the CHEM4-UV-FIBER requires a single 5-volt power supply (not included). Also, SpectraSuite Spectroscopy Software does not support spectrometer operation via the serial port. However, using the included Serial Port Command Set, you can write your own software that makes serial port operation possible.
