ASD – Labspec – NIR Analyzers
The ASD LabSpec line of laboratory instrumentation offers laboratory-grade performance in a ruggedized, portable design suitable for benchtop analysis or transport to the sample location. ASD LabSpec analytical instrumentation performs rapid, non-destructive materials analysis for qualitative and quantitative applications.
The ASD LabSpec 4 product line utilizes the same spectrometer configurations as ASD’s FieldSpec line of spectroradiometers, long recognized as the “gold standard” in portable near-infrared (NIR) field spectroscopy. Employing this state-of-the-art NIR technology, these portable lab instruments can quickly and nondestructively measure a wide range of materials with absolute precision.
The ASD LabSpec spectrometer is easily adaptable for a wide range of analytical applications. For those applications requiring a spectrophotometer, the ASD LabSpec is available with a built in fiber optic light source.
Optimized for rapid analysis, ASD LabSpec 4 spectrometers are the ideal analytical instruments for fast-moving laboratory environments, providing instant results with no sample preparation.

LabSpec analytical instrumentation performs rapid, non-destructive materials analysis for qualitative and quantitative applications. The lab analyzer for fast, non-destructive analysis to optimize your workflow.
Superior spectral resolution for sharp feature recognition.
The LabSpec 4 Hi-Res analytical spectrometer is designed for analysis of materials that are characterized by sharp spectral features that may require more resolute spectral data for accurate detection and identification.
The 3 nm VNIR, 6 nm SWIR spectral resolution of the LabSpec 4 Hi-Res analytical instrument provides superior performance across the 350-2500 nm spectral range. The enhanced spectral resolution in the SWIR range (1001- 2500 nm) is particularly useful for detecting and identifying compounds with narrow spectral features in these longer wavelengths such as soil mineralogy, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, plastics and petrochemicals.
Spectral data with 6 nm SWIR resolution provides a strong foundation for building accurate chemometric calibration models for quantitative and qualitative materials analysis. The spectrometer configuration delivers superior signal throughput and is compatible with all ASD bifurcated probes and lighted accessories.
The lab analyzer for fast, non-destructive analysis to optimize your workflow
The 3 nm VNIR, 10 nm SWIR spectral resolution of the LabSpec® 4 Standard-Res lab analyzer is ideal for precise spectral analysis of a wide range of materials. The 10 nm SWIR spectral resolution provides the basis for building accurate spectral models for chemometric quantitative and qualitative materials analysis. The spectrometer configuration delivers superior signal throughput and is compatible with all ASD bifurcated probes and lighted accessories.
The LabSpec 4 Standard-Res is powered directly from a standard AC connection or optionally with a portable lead-acid gel cell battery that is shipped standard with every instrument. Fiber optic cables are removable for interchangeability and easy transport.
