Notice Title

RFQ - Portable Raman Spectrometer

Notice Description

The National Physical Laboratory's requirement is for a Raman spectrometer to be used to measure a range of sample types. The purpose is to develop measurement methods for in-situ and in-line applications. The spectrometer therefore needs to be either hand-held, or portable with a flexible measurement probe. It must be robust enough to maintain operation in non-ideal conditions such as potentially elevated temperatures, noise or vibration. Additional information: Please do not contact the person listed on this notice. Documents can only be obtained through Bravo Solutions.
