New affordable CMOS Echelle spectrometer - Scores of new features incorporated - lower price 2. Turn your camera into a spectrometer - We fit to your own equipment 3. New LIBS and Raman models - Optimized products to address these specific requirements 4. Improved Mechelle 7500 (Gen II) -Many advances based on customer feedback 5. Software upgrades - New and existing customers benefit. ___________________________________________________________________________ 1. NEW MECHELLE 2000 INCLUDING CMOS CAMERA This new spectrometer addresses many of the demands customers have requested: - Affordable pricing - Improved collection optics - New display software included - USB interface for laptop control - Resolution 0.1nm FWHM at 200nm - Wavelength range 185nm to 1050nm - Simultaneously recorded spectra with no gaps - Built-in software controlled calibration source - Detector with active pixel technology included - Robust new compact mechanical design - Extremely high dynamic range - LabVIEW drivers available - Low power consumption - No moving parts - Portable The instrument is expected to be launched second quarter of 2003. Interested parties should register at http://www.multichannel.se/mechelle_info.htm for a specification sheet. 2. TURN YOUR CAMERA INTO A SPECTROMETER! If you already have a two-dimensional camera it may be possible to simply purchase the Mechelle and have Multichannel Instruments integrate the two. Your camera can be assembled and disassembled by the end user whenever needed. 3. NEW MECHELLE MODELS FOR RAMAN AND LIBS The New Mechelle 7500 (Gen II models) have further designs optimized for two key applications. In the field of LIBS a modified system with intensified camera gives resolutions of 8000+ and wavelength range 190nm to 850nm has been designed. For Raman applications the Mechelle has been tailored for the very low level optical emission sources whilst maintaining high resolution and the broad simultaneous wavelength range. 4. UPDATED MECHELLE 7500 (GENERATION II) The Mechelle 7500 Gen II has many improvements at no extra cost. A new mechanical design gives improved stability and accuracy. New collection optics offer improved sensitivity with the option of directly coupling into the spectrometer or using a new fibre optic adaptor. The spectrograph comes with new display software with the option of a built in calibration source. Systems are designed with the ability for the user to remove and re-attach the camera detector for use in other applications. 5. NEW SOFTWARE RELEASES Multichannel Instruments will shortly begin the release of new MI Engineering Software. This is intended to replace the existing Mechelle software version 1.6 although existing customers can run either. Many improvements have been made including; a viewer for instantly displaying the spectra. A 'continuous' mode displays each captured spectra. A zoom feature allows subsections to be monitored. The heart of the software has been re-written to provide a stable platform for the user interface and direct programming of the instrument through 130 pre-defined routines is now possible. FindELMO, the GRAMS add-on program for identifying atomic and molecular transitions in the spectrum, has also been updated for use with GRAMS versions 6.0 and higher. Existing customers may request their free-of-charge upgrade via e-mail. If you are interested in any of the above items please contact your local distributor or Multichannel Instruments directly.
