The Inspector Raman™ is a robust, portable Raman spectrometer that fits in your hand for analysis of solids, liquids, pastes, and slurries. This lightweight, dispersive spectrometer has no moving parts and may be used in any position. Raman spectroscopy offers the advantage of identifying various substances by their unique fingerprint, based on the chemical structure of the unknown, and can do so through walls of sealed bags, transparent bottles, flasks, vials, and ampoules without opening the container. Data is retrieved remotely with Bluetooth technology or USB with a laptop and NuSpec™ software. Spectral libraries are developed using DeltaNu's library development software for identification of unknown substances.
