QSI: rs series

The QSI RS Series is designed for life science and research applications from Visible to NIR wavelengths. Dual read rates of up to 8 MHz with high-speed USB 2.0, deep cooling to >45C below ambient and full 16-bit output allow QSI RS Series cameras to produce high quality images with high frame rates, extremely wide dynamic range, excellent linearity and exceptionally low noise.

Some RS series cameras are available with no-coverglass CCDs and a fused silica window for maximum transmission across a broad spectrum of light, from as low as 350nm up to 1100nm. Electronic input and output triggers with latency as low as 5µsec allow precise exposure timing and triggering of external events such as strobes. RS 9.2, RS 6.1, RS 4.2 and RS 2.0 models support Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) exposure mode for flow visualization with two exposures as close together as 100µsec.

Cooling on the RS Series is achieved with a custom 2-stage TEC supporting regulated cooling up to >45C below ambient, or greater than 50C with the optional Liquid Heat Exchanger.

The refined engineering and impressive fit, finish and attention to detail will surpass your highest expectations.
