Cost Effective Microspectroscopy
FLEX PRO™ from CRAIC is a full-featured yet flexibly configured instrument that incorporates UV-visible-NIR optics, spectrophotometers digital imaging, and software...all tied together with our Lightswitch by CRAIC™ optical multiplexer. With our Lightswitch by CRAIC™ technology, FLEX PRO™ retains the ease-of-use for which CRAIC instruments are known, while being capable of everything from UV-visible-NIR microspectroscopy, high resolution microscopic imaging, refractive index measurements and more.
With an attractive price-entry point, the FLEX PRO™ microspectrophotometer utilizes tested technologies to allow you to measure UV-visible-NIR range transmission, absorbance, reflectance, emission and fluorescence spectra of microscopic sample areas. And while microspectra™ are being acquired, the sample may be simultaneously imaged with a high-resolution color digital imaging system or through eyepieces. Additional features may also include measuring the refractive index of microscopic samples as well as microcolorimetry and microspot thin film thickness measurements.
The FLEX PRO™ microspectrophotometer is built to yield superior quality images and spectra for an attractive price.

UV-vis-NIR Microspectroscopy
Cost effective microspectroscopy
Microspectroscopy that features a spectral range from the UV through the visible and into the near infrared. Simultaneous and direct imaging of both the sampling aperture and the sample makes for fast, accurate measurements. Featuring Scorpii™, SampleSafe™ and Lightblades™ technology, the FLEX PRO™ gives you the ability to measure transmission, reflectance and fluorescence spectra of even sub-micron samples. CRAIC Technologies is also the only recognized source for NIST traceable microspectrometer standards. |
