Function and Applications

The compact spectrometer is a specially developed compact  instrument for science education. It is easy to use and its accompanying software provides diverse possibilities for visualizing, measuring, comparing and evaluating spectroscopic data. For the measurement of optical spectra the included cuvettes simply have to be inserted into the spectrometer. By means of the included optical fiber cuvette adapter it is for example also possible to measure external light sources. The internal fixed grid decomposes the light spectrally. The spectrum is recorded by means of a CCD array, so that the complete spectrum is recorded in one go, which makes it possible to reliably detect even rapid changes in a spectrum. The software is especially designed for this spectrometer is available free of charge as a download (Windows) and in the app stores (iOS and Android). The power supply is provided through four AA batteries (not included).
