SmartEngine UV-VNIR
The SmartEngine (SE) Series spectrometers deliver high-performance spectral analysis in a compact, rugged Czerny–Turner optical system. Built with high-sensitivity CCD and CMOS linear sensors and controlled by a 32-bit RISC microcontroller, the SE Series provides excellent optical resolution, low noise, and strong resistance to temperature, vibration, and humidity variations. Covering 180–1100 nm with multiple sensor options, the SmartEngine Series offers flexibility for UV, visible, and NIR applications. Powered entirely by USB and featuring programmable I/O ports, it integrates seamlessly into laboratory, industrial, and OEM platforms.
