Application-specific portable reflectometers
Custom spectral range, sample port, and software interface options.
Custom Spectral Bands
SOC410 Series Reflectometers use a broadband light source with spectral band distribution achieved by a set of optical filters in front of photodetectors. By modifying these filters and detectors, we can design a measurement head with custom spectral bands to enhance spectral resolution for application-specific regions of interest.

Measurement Head Modifications
APERTURE ADJUSTMENTS
The standard source aperture is 12 mm but can be modified for smaller samples or target areas. The minimum source aperture size is 2mm. Decreasing the size of the source aperture results in a smaller beam spot size (the sample port diameter remains the same). It is important to note that reducing the aperture size will potentially decrease signal-to-noise performance. Our team would be happy to model potential SNR changes for your materials.
AUTOMATED / REMOTE MEASUREMENTS
410 Series reflectometers can be converted to a rigid optic coupling with an extended focal point for non-contact measurements, as well as mounting assistance for RCU units to be incorporated into a larger robotic system.

SAMPLE PORT CHANGES
Additionally, the standard polyurethane port o-ring, which protects samples during the measurement process, can be removed or replaced with a different material to meet specific application requirements.
Custom Verification Coupons
We can also provide customized verification coupons to offer extra assurance for quality control and to establish a known standard with optical properties similar to a target sample. These tailored coupons enhance the reliability of reflectance measurements by ensuring that the handheld reflectometers are calibrated correctly and consistently accurate.
Software Interface
410 Series reflectometers have a robust operating software, designed to meet the needs of most users for general operation and data review. However, we understand that certain projects require more specialized capabilities. To address these specific operational environments, we offer custom software development services, adding unique features and functionalities tailored to your particular requirements, such as:
- Solar transmittance measurement mode
- Engineering/technician mode for improved data security protocols
- Remote listening mode for measurement automation
