2-channel sensor systems for a variety of applications
The SPECTRO-2‎ series now closes the gap between contrast sensors (SPECTRO-1 series) and color sensors (SPECTRO-3 series).
 
The SPECTRO-2 system can operate as a pure 2-channel system (quasi two SPECTRO-1 sensors in one housing), or as a comparative (normed) system in which one channel can function as a reference.  
 
The Windows® operating software provides a large variety of evaluation algorithms, and combined with corresponding special fiber optics, of which an extensive range of different types is available, this sensor system is perfect for solving many different tasks. 
 
The use of BICONE fiber optics, for example, allows high-precision, space-saving distance measurements also suitable for Ex areas (with quartz fiber optics and UV LEDs among others for distance measurements on glass surfaces).
