A rugged and reliable post-dispersive near-infrared spectrometer designed for the industrial, manufacturing, laboratory, and field environments, providing research-grade materials measurement information, where and when you most need it.

The Labspec^® 5000 and 5100 optical spectrophotometers are truly portable, post dispersive, NIR analyzers with Ethernet and optional wireless functionality. They are valuable tools for optimizing the data testing and measurement processes on a wide selection of materials, including solids, powders, slurries and liquids, for a growing list of applications and industries.

Rapid and Repeatable — a scan time of approximately 100 milliseconds means that you are no longer limited to costly laboratory-based wet chemistry methods, so you can increase the frequency of testing for more comprehensive material information during your manufacturing and production processes.

Accurate and Reliable —a post-dispersive system for extremely low stray light level, combined with the proprietary ASD DriftLock™  for maximum stability, and highly sensitive detectors equals superior repeatability of results for better material determination and analysis.

Ultra Rugged and Portable — the LabSpec spectrophotometers are built to withstand extreme conditions, including intense temperatures, shock and vibrations, as well as other situations commonly found in industrial and field environments.

Maximum Flexibility — the fiber optic cable, with its standard SMA 905 connector, means interfacing to a wide selection of sampling accessories and taking the probe to the sample is simple. As a result, you have more options for how and when measurements are collected. 

Autonomous Control — the ASD Software Developer’s Kit provides a user-friendly interface with LabVIEW^® systems allowing for automated information collection and ease of use for a greater variety of applications.

Quantitative and Qualitative Measurements — User friendly Indico Pro software with the proprietary ASD Rapid Classifier, and real-time interface with Grams™ and Unscrambler^® chemometrics packages, allow for real-time results using developed calibration models.

Collect more robust information in less time, including simultaneous data for multiple constituents!
