Product news

For nearly 15 years, the PR-650 SpectraScan has been the most widely used spectroradiometer in the world - the workhorse of the industry. The new PR-655 replaces the world renowned PR-650 with a plethora of enhancements. This makes spectrally based photometric and colourimetric measurements even easier.

This unique, portable battery powered instrument utilises a fast-scanning multi-element detector spectrometer with a spectral resolution of 3.12 nm per pixel. The system is controlled by a full 56 x 75 mm colour touch screen. Following a measurement, the PR-655 displays data and colour spectral and CIE graphs on the system display. The PR-655 design provides stand alone operation - no PC required, even to see the spectrum. The PR-655 can be also controlled via the world famous SpectraWin software over the USB or Bluetooth interface or using text based commands (Remote Mode).

Other hardware features include AutoSync® for automatically synchronising to the source refresh rate ensuring the utmost accuracy, an external trigger port allowing remote measurement activation from either a push button or peripheral device, a Secure Digital (SD) port for measurement storage, and a long lasting rechargeable Lithium-ion (Li) battery.

UV-Visible SpectroscopyUltraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometers are used to measure the interaction of UV and visible light with a sample, including transmission, reflectance & absorbance. The two major instrument classes are single-beam or double-beam spectrophotometers. More specialized equipment includes colorimeters, spectroradiometers and refractometers. Portable and microvolume spectrophotometers are also available. For the modular spectroscopy lab, explore a range of light sources for combination with a spectrograph/spectrometer and optics.
