Hamamatsu ORCA-ER Digital Camera C4742-95 & Controller

Product Information

Hey there, scientists! Buckle up, because we've got a top-notch piece of equipment for you. Feast your eyes on the Hamamatsu ORCA-ER Digital Camera C4742-95 & Controller. This bad boy boasts a black and white CCD digital camera equipped with an advanced progressive scan interline CCD chip that offers high sensitivity in the VIS-NIR region, delivering substantially improved noise characteristics at high frame rates. The camera's hermetic vacuum-sealed head, cooled with a Peltier unit, can reach temperatures as low as -20°C, significantly reducing dark noise and minimizing thermal drift. This technological wizardry makes it an indispensable tool for demanding scientific and industrial applications. You'll be delighted to find that the RS422A digital output ensures the ORCA-ER's compatibility with a broad array of commercially available frame grabber boards. The setup is further facilitated by its standard C-mount lens coupling, allowing easy connection to optical microscopes and lenses. Additionally, its fast electronic shuttering, rapid readout, and low noise integration render it an excellent choice for high and low-level imaging applications. In scientific terms, its hermetic vacuum-sealed head, high resolution of 1.37 million pixels, and exposure time of up to 10 seconds make it a camera you'd want to get your hands on. Whether high or low imaging, the ORCA-ER excels. Now, let's dive into some of the intriguing specifications of the ORCA-ER: It's equipped with a progressive scan interline CCD with a micro-lens, offering an effective resolution of 1344 (H) 1024 (V) pixels. The cell size stands at 6.45 m x 6.45 m for square format, with an effective area of 8.67 mm x 6.60 mm. All this is backed by a pixel clock rate of 14.75M Hz/pixel and a frame rate of 8.8 frame/sec. Achieve your fascinating scientific quests seamlessly with the ORCA-ER.
