The TRISTAN® light is a compact desktop spectrometer. It is controlled via PC either via the included TRIWin 2.0 software or by any Windows application that supports MyInstrument drivers. It is dedicated for desktop use in combination with a PC. It can be connected to the PC either by serial or USB interface and it can be remote controlled via Ethernet.
The housing has a modular design and can be combined with the ILUMIA series of light source to a space saving desktop solution.
The TRISTAN® light comes with an integrated controller board based on a 32 bit RISC processor. It handles the measurement results directly on-board, transfers them to the PC afterwards. The onboard Intelligence in TRISTAN® light is designed to control all parameters in the spectrometer and to transmit ready-to-use data to the PC-Interface. These are the most important onboard functions: - Add cycles: Minimizing the noise by multiple measurements (up to 100) and calculating the average values.
- Dynamic extension: extending the dynamic range for 128 times by up to seven seperate exposure times for different areas of the measured spectral range.
- Automatic exposure timing: Makes spectral measurement as easy as taking a holiday snapshot! Manual control is available too.
- Automatic amplitude correction: Erasing the detectors characteristic from the measurement results give you the free view on the spectral response from your application.
- Dark current compensation: Eliminating the influence of exposure time and detector temperature fully automatically from the measuring results.
- Noise suppression: Adjustable noise filters help to reduce the noise without covering the signal.
Post processing of measured data and storage is done on the PC with the help of the included software package TRIWin. This software is also used to control the TRISTAN® light spectrometer.
The TRISTAN® light for the range from 200nm up to 1100nm is equipped with a back thinned CCD array 2048x14 pixel. It is available in four pre-configured spectral ranges and can be customized to your requirements very easily.
The TRISTAN® light-NIR for the spectral range from 900nm up to 2200nm is available with different InGaAS-detectors for the ranges 900nm – 1700nm and 1100nm – 2200nm, both of them with 512 pixels.
