OEM spectrometer: AvaBench Optical Platform
The AvaSpec optical platform can be integrated into customers' systems with or without our circuit board. Avantes has developed four types of UV/VIS optical platforms, particularly suitable for OEM customers. The optical platforms AvaBench-75-ULS (for StarLine and SensLine), AvaBench-75-MN (CompactLine), AvaBench-75-ULSTEC (SensLine), AvaBench-37.5-HS (SensLine), and AvaBench-100-HSC (SensLine) are Czerny Turner symmetric optical paths designed with fiber optic inlet connectors (standard SMA, or other options), collimating focusing mirrors, and diffraction gratings. Different gratings with different dispersion and flare angles can be selected and applied in the range of 200 to 1160 nm.
Our new micro workbench is highly suitable for OEM integration of existing systems and handheld devices. The high numerical aperture AvaBench-37.5-HS and AvaBench-75-ULS mounting holes have complete mechanical compatibility, making it easy for OEM customers to upgrade to higher throughput optical platforms.
The wavelength range, resolution table, detector specifications, and AvaBench options can be found on the instrument page corresponding to each spectrometer type. In the table below, the key specifications of these optical platforms are listed.
All AvaBench optical platforms are fully compatible with Avantes' circuit boards or can be connected to customer specific electronic devices. The video output is processed through a separate mini coaxial cable.
