Infrared Imaging : The best gets better
Viewing infrared wavelengths between 0.4-1.5microns, the converted image produced by the new 7215 is now brighter and offers edge to edge sharpness.
PISeca D-510 sensor probes are available for measurement ranges of 20, 50 and 100um, electronically extendable up to 500um.
In combination with PISeca E-852 signal conditioner electronics, they offer a resolution of up to 0.2nm.
Integrated linearisation allows users to achieve linearity of 40nm.
With a maximum bandwidth of up to 6.6kHz, these sensor systems are also well-suited for dynamic vibration-measurement of machine parts.
Capacitive position sensors have been used for many years by PI for its own highest-precision nanopositioning stages.
PISeca single-electrode sensors are very robust and have very high temperature stability.
Ease of integration of PISeca sensors is ensured by standardised sensor probes and signal conditioner electronics with an LED-bar gap indicator. Request a free brochure from Lambda Photometrics ...
