The AvaLight-HAL-CAL is a compact, low-cost light source, calibrated for the VIS (350-1095nm). Optionally an extended calibration for the NIR spectral range (1100-2500 nm) can be ordered. This NIST traceable calibrated light source is developed for use with all AvaSpec spectrometers, to measure absolute spectral intensity.
The AvaLight-HAL-CAL comes with a built-in diffuser, a cosine corrector CC-UV/VIS-CAL with SMA adapter and a CDROM with the calibration file in ASCII format. The AvaLight-HAL-CAL calibration file can be read in by AvaSoft-IRRAD, a software package developed to make your spectrometer system a spectroradiometer.
A special version of the calibrated light source, the AvaLight-HAL-CAL-ISPXX, is available to couple the AvaSphere-XXIRRAD integrating spheres to the light source (XX=30, 50, 80).
The AvaLight-HAL-CAL cannot be used as an illumination source for spectral absorbance, transmission and reflection measurements. The AvaLight-HAL-CAL is calibrated together with the included PS-24V/1.25A power supply.
