Digital IR camera for spectroscopy HLS 190IR

Digital camera for near-IR range HLS 190IR

Digital cameras of the HLS 190IR series with linear InGaAs image sensors are aimed for operation as a registration system in near-infrared region of a spectrum in the wavelengths range from 0,9 up to 2,55 µm, depending on model, as a part of optical spectral instruments. The features of this series are: wide spectral range, low dark signal level, as well as the advanced ability to program the camera operating modes.
