Product information "AvaSphere-50-LS-HAL-12V Integrating Sphere with Halogen Light Source"
360-2500 nm; Colour Temperature 2,850 K; Stability/Drift <0.1%/h; Internal Diameter 50 mm; Sample Port Diameter 10 mm; Power Supply 12 VDC, 1 A; Dimensions Ø70 mm, 82.5 mm Height
Providing up to 160 times more light on your sample for a reflection measurement relative to Avantes’ standard reflectance integrating sphere, the Avantes AvaSphere-50-LS-HAL-12V is a valuable instrument for reflection applications. It is a combination of an integrating sphere and a halogen light source.
The sphere provides diffused halogen light on your sample without the losses associated with fiber optic coupling. It has a direct collimated SMA-port for collection of the reflection signal with any of Avantes’ AvaSpec spectrometers.
The AvaSphere-50-LS-HAL-12V integrating sphere is mostly useful for dark or low reflecting materials and NIR spectral measurements where signal strength can be limited. It is also very useful for measuring gemstones.
The AvaSphere-50-LS-HAL-12V has an internal diameter of 50 mm, a sample port of 10 mm and a SMA-terminated reference port. The 5 W halogen lamp is stabilized and cooled with forced airflow. A 12 VDC power supply is included. The switch line makes it possible to remotely switch the halogen light source on/off with a TTL signal.
