B&WTek NanoRam handheld spectrometer

B&WTek’s NanoRam is a compact, lightweight, handheld Raman spectrometer and integrated computing system designed for rapid raw material verification.

The handheld Raman spectrometer is used for non-destructive identification and verification of materials such as APIs, excipients, intermediates and finished products. Compact and weighing less than 1 kg, it can be used by non-technical users to rapidly identify samples in the warehouse, loading dock or field, helping to eliminate quarantine areas and expedite materials through the manufacturing lifecycle. Utilising Raman technology, non-contact analysis can be performed through transparent containers, all while maintaining the volume and integrity of the sample.

At the heart of the product is a 785 nm-wavelength laser excitation source coupled with a thermoelectrically cooled CCD detector and a crossed Czerny-Turner spectrograph, delivering a stable signal with low background noise. The handheld Raman spectrometer comes with the point-and-shoot, vial holder and bottle adaptor accessories.

The device features a high-brightness touch-screen display and an embedded one- and 2-dimensional barcode scanner. It has an IP64 dust-tight and splash-proof housing and supports a batch scanning option, along with Wi-Fi and ethernet communication for data synchronisation and management.
