NOTE: Depending on the application and the desired uncertainty levels, custom calibrations may be required to characterize the system under different operating conditions. Our application engineers would be happy to discuss this with you and help define the best system and calibrations to meet your requirements.

Meet Your Dynamic Range Requirements

Variable attenuators are a key element in achieving the dynamic range capability of the HELIOS®Plus D Family systems. They allow you to adjust the radiance output of your system without affecting the spectral fidelity. Three variable attenuator options are available (VAA, VAD and VAM) with varying degrees of automation and resolution performance.

Automate Your Testing Routines

Automate your R&D testing routines with HELIOSense. Responsive Hunt & Seek feedback loops using attenuators, detectors, and spectrometers, or implement Scripting functions for simple programs inside and outside the HELIOSense GUI simplify your testing. HELIOSense Software is the primary interface for HELIOSPlus components and systems. It is a flexible architecture where any hardware built into the Labsphere API (LSAPI) can be recognized and used in HELIOSPlus systems.
