#R4  JAZ Spectrometer System with Fluorescence Probe

The latest & greatest Jaz spectrometer. This is a potable unit with a bright OLED display. It can run off of battery power for complete portability or you can plug it into the USB port of your Windows, Linnux or Mac PC.
The Jaz is a modular system that supports multiple spectrometer channels, light sources, etehrnet and other items. This particular unit features a UV-VIS system with L2 lens for the 200 - 850nm range. It comes with a variety of slit sizes that are user changeable, making it ideal for fluorescence, absorbance, or reflection. Included is the Jaz-B battery moduleand 1 Jaz spectrometer channel. Slits include 200um for fluorescence, 25 um for routine absorbance and reflection and 10 um for finer optical resolution. The unit comes with our QR400 style reflection probe and our LLS-365nm LED source for fluorescence excitation. If you prefer a visble or VIS/UV source please inquire.

#R5  NEOFOX Optical Oxygen Sensor System -- Probe style

The Neofox phase fluorometer couples to our fiber optic oxygen sensor to provide O2 measurements in gases or liquids. The sensor is based on measuring the fluorescence decay rate of a ruthenium-organic complex. A pulsed blue LED provides the excitation. Molecular O2 quenches the fluorescence. The unit comes with our standard FOXY-R fiber probe and fiber assembly. You can calibrate the sensor using gases (such as air and N2), or in liquids such as water (air saturated and O2 stripped water). A temperature probe is included to monitor and correct for temperature differences. Factory calibrations of the probe are vaialble as well.

#R6  NEOFOX Optical Oxygen Sensor System -- Patch style

The Neofox phase fluorometer couples to a fiber probe that can be pointed at our oxygen sensitive patches to provide O2 measurements in gases or liquids. The sensor is based on measuring the fluorescence decay rate of a ruthenium-organic complex. A pulsed blue LED provides the excitation. Molecular O2 quenches the fluorescence. The patches have an adhesive backing and can be measured from the front or rear surface, making it possible to deploy them inside of clear vessels.  You can calibrate the patches using gases (such as air and N2), or in liquids such as water (air saturated and O2 stripped water).

#R3  Colorbug  CIE Color Sensor












The colorbug measures the color of light, and sends the data to your iphone or itouch via wireless. This handheld sensor measures the CIE color values of the light falling on the color-eye. An ingenious patterened filter array on a CMOS sensor gives accurate measure of the illuminance and the CIE color values. It is completely portable, with a rechargeable battery and a 6 hour battery life. Download the free colorbug application to your iphone or itouch, or run the system from your Mac PC.

Colorbug is an excellent tool for measuring and adjusting the lighting in theatrical settings, retail locations, office and industrial buildings or anywhere that the color of the lighting matters.
