Thermal stability in spectrometry

In order to maintain thermal stability of spectrometers operating in variable environments, Ocean Optics has released the USB-TC small-footprint heating device. Compatible with the company’s USB2000+ and USB4000 miniature spectrometers, the unit attaches directly to the spectrometer and maintains wavelength thermal stability to within ±0.025 pixels/°C. This temperature control ensures accuracy in settings where temperature variations can affect spectral performance.

The USB-TC is available with preselected set-point temperatures between 25°C and 55°C. With constant ambient temperature, the USB-TC stabilises to within 0.1°C of the final temperature within 30 minutes. The system will operate over a temperature range of 5–40°C below the set-point temperature. Modular optical bench accessories make it possible to configure the USB2000+ and USB4000 for many different
applications. The USB-TC is available with new spectrometer purchases or as a retrofit option for existing owners of USB2000+ and USB4000 spectrometers.
