Aspen is the newest in design innovation from Apogee Imaging Systems. Aspen increases cooling performance in a smaller package, improves stray light baffling, adds a Network interface with a built-in web server, supports dual output CCDs up to 16Mhz and sets a new standard in shutter reliability. The Aspen CG4050 has a 4-megapixel format interline transfer sensor with low noise and high quantum efficiency. The camera is available with a monochrome (CG4050) or color (CG4050C) sensor. Small pixels are ideal for microscopy. All Aspen systems are backed by a 2 year warranty on the camera and lifetime warranty on the CCD chamber integrity.  

Additional Features:

  • 32 MByte camera memory
  • Subarray readout and fast sequencing modes
  • Adjustable fan speed for low/zero vibration
  • General purpose programmable I/O port
  • Programmable status indicators
  • 32/64 bit ActiveX drivers included
  • Field upgradeable firmware
  • AR coated silica windows
