RCN Series
High temperature cavity blackbody
From Visible to Far Infrared
The RCN series high temperature cavity blackbodies are reference sources covering a wide range of wavelengths, from visible to far IR. They consist of a compact emissive head controlled by a new generation 2U electronic unit and an intuitive color touchscreen.
The cavity structure leads to incomparable uniformity and emissivity.
3 Key Points
High temperature reference source up to 1350°C
High spatial and angular uniformity / emissivity
Reduced cooling time thanks to COOLSPEED technology

Integrated Tests with LabVIEW Driver
HGH provides a full-featured LabVIEW driver for its family of blackbodies, compatible with LabVIEW 2019 or higher and for all available communication links Ethernet, RS232 and IEEE.
The supply includes all the required VIs directly available from the LabVIEW menu. These functions allow the operator to send a temperature setpoint, read the current temperature, check the stabilization status and many other functions.
The supply also includes an example program built with all the available VIs.
Thanks to this driver, all HGH blackbodies are fully controllable and can be integrated into complex test benches running automatic infrared characterization routines.
