v080 3D models

To view the 3D print models as dynamic 3D objects, just click the static image of the part you want to rotate and zoom.

Main container shell body

The main container box of the xSpectrolum v080 can hold 2 differently shaped spectral sensors modules. For each sensor type the container can be produced with or without ports for external sensors. The container can also be produced for only external sensors and no bayonet join for a main spectral sensor. v080 thus comes with 5 different front sides and 2 different back sides.

Main container bayonet cover

The bayonet cover is for protecting the spectral sensor and interior of the main container. It comes in two versions, one higher for the Hamamatsu C12880MA spectral sensor and one lower for the Hamamatsu C14384MA sensor.

Solid sampling equipment

The equipment for solid sampling consists of a muzzle, that is a cylinder with a bayonet joint that also has a platform for attaching the xSpecled PCB. The other end of the muzzle can be held open against any (solid) object for spectral scanning, or fitted with a sample dish, a white referene or a cover. There is also a separate cover for the white reference.

Liquid (cuvette) sampling equipment

The equipment for liquid sampling consists of a muzzle, that is a cylinder with a bayonet joint that usually also has a platform for attaching the xSpecled PCB. The cylinder has a cubic cut-out that fits any of a number of cuvette holders. Cuvette holders include those for full band light that shines through the liquid sample (abosrbance/transmittance spectroscopy) or monochromatic (laser or LED) light that shines at right angle compared to the spectral sensor (fluorescence or Raman spectroscopy). There are also versions, of both the muzzle and the cuvette holder, for attaching a (stronger) external laser. Two different covers are also available.

Muzzle for liquid (cuvette) sampling

The muzzle for liquid smaples, that joins the cuvette holder to the main container using the baoynet joint, comes in 2 version: a standard version for all lightsource that connect via the pogo-pins in the bayonet joins, and one special version for external lasers that lack the pogi-pin connectors.

Cuvette holders for fluorescence and Raman spectroscopy

Cuvette holders with light entering from the side comes in different versions with different openings for different light sources.

Cuvette muzzle cover

The cover for the cuvette muzzle is attached more firmly and permanent compared to the removable cover or the solid muzzle. The cuvette muzzle cover comes in 2 versions, a higher version with room for opposite light suorces and a lower version for other light sources.

Muzzle bayonet cover

The muzzles come with a bayonet joint that fit in the main contaier shell, to protect the electronics in the muzzles that can be fitted with a cover when not in use.

External sensor shells

Two kinds of external sensors come with 3D printed shells. The series of AMS filter based spectral sensors come in a cylinder that is more or less like the solid muzzle, but as a stand alone version with both light and sensor built into the PCB (breakout board) that fits the unit. The AMS external sensors cylinde fits the same sample holder, white reference and cover as the ordinary soild muzzle. The second set of sensors are the MQx series of flammable gas sensors. They all have the same size and basic design and fit in a 2-part shell.

Mold for silicon casing for the Hamamatsu C14483MA sensor

The Hamamatsu C14483MA sensor must be fitted using a silicon frame or casing. To create the silicon frame we use a 3D mold model.
