Description

Ocean NR Spectrometer Family

Ocean NR Series spectrometers are engineered for high-performance spectral analysis, delivering exceptional precision and reliability. Designed to excel in complex and low-light environments, NR spectrometers offer optical resolution as fine as 2.85 nm FWHM for detailed peak discrimination.

Thermoelectric cooling ensures thermal stability and consistent results, while High Gain configurations enhance sensitivity to detect even the faintest signals. Whether you’re analysing low-concentration samples or working in challenging conditions, NR spectrometers provide the clarity and confidence you need.

OceanNR spectrometers are compatible with Ocean Insight’s comprehensive line of fibre optic light sources, optical fibres and sampling accessories.

Which NIR spectroscopy wavelength range to choose?

NR 1.7 and NR 1.7HG

  • 900–1700 nm: Ideal for moisture and organic overtone bands; offers lower cost and reduced complexity, making it suitable for routine food quality testing and moisture analysis in agriculture.

NR 2.2 and NR 2.2HG

  • 900–2200 nm: Provides additional chemical specificity through more combination bands; excellent for pharmaceutical analysis or distinguishing between similar polymers in recycling operations.

NR 2.5

  • 900–2500 nm: Delivers the broadest coverage for maximum compound identification and robust model development, valuable for biotechnology, medical diagnostics, and advanced industrial applications.

Choosing the right wavelength range depends on your specific application, desired chemical specificity, and budget.
