Model 219 500-mm focal length Vacuum Monochromator / Spectrograph

The Model 219 is a 500-mm focal length f/8.7 vacuum monochromator. It features the McPherson patented Corrected-Loci (US Pat. 3490848) optical design and uses SNAP IN Gratings (McPherson US Pat. 3433557.) The vacuum tight housing is internally welded. All the instruments moving parts are outside the chamber to insure clean, easy evacuation. A large 6-inch focusing mirror delivers a 100-mm wide focal plane at the exit port. The optics in this instrument are coated with Al+MgF2 enhancing the vacuum UV response. Many available accessories allow this instrument to be configured as a monochromator, spectrograph, or polychromator. It will accept CCD, microchannel plate, film and even multi-channel polychromator attachments with up to six (6) 1-inch side on PMTs. It comes standard with a manual drive and a wavelength counter accurate to 1-Angstrom. Grating rotation is controlled by our Model 789A-3 digital stepping drive.The grating holder accepts 50 x 50 mm plane SNAP-IN gratings and can alternately be used with 68 x 68-mm gratings.
