DETECTORS
Choosing the right detector could be the most important decision when specifying a spectroradiometer. From the experience gained in producing hundreds of spectral measurement systems, we have assembled a range of detectors to cover most applications. Each detector is properly housed, complete with any associated circuitry and can be mounted directly at the exit slit of any of our monochromators. The detectors below represent our standard range, but we also have working knowledge of many others, so please consult us if you do not find the detector you want.
