Mini-spectrometers TG series C11713CA C11714CB For Raman spectrophotometry, high resolution type (spectral resolution: 0.3 nm) The C11713CA and C11714CB are polychromators integrated with optical elements, an image sensor and a driver circuit. Light to be measured is guided into the entrance port of TG series through an optical fiber and the spectrum measured with the built-in image sensor is output from the USB port to a PC for data acquisition. The C11713CA has sensitivity in a wavelength range of 500 to 600 nm, while the C11714CB covers a range of 790 to 920 nm. Both types offer a spectral resolution of 0.3 nm. Their products come supplied with free evaluation software that allows setting measurement conditions, acquiring and saving data, and displaying graphs. Original measurement software can be designed on an end-user’s side as DLL’s function specification is disclosed. Features Applications High accuracy optical characteristics: spectral resolution 0.3 nm Raman spectrophotometry Easy to install into equipment due to compact design High throughput due to transmission grating made of quartz Wavelength conversion factor is recorded in internal memory *1 *1: A conversion factor for converting the image sensor pixel number into a wavelength is recorded in the module. A calculation factor for converting the A/D converted count into the input light intensity is not provided. Selection guide (Typ.)
