Highly Sensitive, High Resolution Fiber Optic Raman System
The i-Raman® Plus is an enhanced version of our award winning i-Raman portable Raman spectrometer, now powered by our innovative smart spectrometer technology. Using a high quantum efficiency CCD array detector with deeper cooling and high dynamic range, this portable Raman spectrometer delivers an improved signal to noise ratio for up to 30 minutes of integration time, making it possible to measure weak Raman signals. The i-Raman Plus features the unique combination of wide spectral coverage and high resolution with configurations measuring out to 4000cm-1, enabling you to measure stretching bands around 3100cm-1. The system’s small footprint, lightweight design, and low power consumption provide research grade Raman capabilities anywhere. The i-Raman Plus comes standard with a fiber optic probe, probe holder with XYZ positioning stage, cuvette adaptor for measuring liquid samples, and our proprietary BWIQ multi-variant analysis software. With the i-Raman Plus, a high precision qualitative and quantitative Raman solution is at your fingertips.
