Obstacles can be avoided or eliminated – provided you have the flexibility to act.
The new housing structure of the MCS FLEX now allows much more flexible integration of the spectrometer module into your measuring systems and overcomes all obstacles.
| MCS FLEX - Built-in Flexibility |
| |
The MCS FLEX employs an imaging grating, an optical
input and a CCD or PDA sensor array. The core of the
spectrometer is a blazed flat-field grating for light dispersion
and imaging. The overall configuration results in a
spectral pixel pitch of 0.8 nm / pixel, enabling a spectral
resolution of better than 3 nm, in accordance with the
Rayleigh criterion. The optical input is an SMA connector
with an integrated fiber cross section converter.

All of the optical components are mounted in a housing
made of a special alloy. The housing can now be placed to
the users’ measuring systems with much more flexibility.
The special alloy of the housing completes the excellent
thermal properties of the MCS FLEX. With their compact
size and low weight, the spectrometer modules are ideally
suited for mobile measuring systems. Their excellent
thermal stability and very low amount of stray light ensure
reliable measuring results even in rough environments.
Depending on the sensor array, the modules are offered
as MCS FLEX CCD (190 – 980 nm) or MCS FLEX PDA
(190 – 1015 nm).
Areas of application
The spectrometer modules can be integrated close to the
process and are extremely versatile. Their applications
range from thickness measurements of thin layers and
chemical analyses to the characterization of light sources
and deployment as HPLC detectors. They are ideal for
process and quality control, monitoring or calibration.
Furthermore, the high light sensitivity of the MCS FLEX CCD
enables its use for fluorescence measurements in microscopy
or special layer thickness measurements in the
semiconductor industry.
- More flexible module placement
- Lower temperature drift
- Less stray light
- More compact design
- Considerably less weight
