Product description

More about the series Aspen...

Ideally suited to challenging astronomy and physical science imaging applications, the Apogee Aspen family offers a range of popular full frame and interline CCD sensors, within a camera platform that is designed to push performance to the maximum.

  • Deep thermoelectric cooling ensures optimal sensitivity for long exposure applications.
  • The simple convenience of a USB 2.0 interface is accompanied by an Ethernet network interface with a built-in web server.
  • The Apogee Aspen also utilizes a new extremely high reliability shutter, specified for >5 million shutter cycles.

The Aspen CG6 uses the low noise version of the 1 megapixel KAF-1001E CCD sensor featuring large 24 µm pixels, high dynamic range and quantum efficiency.
Cooling down to 60oC below ambient results in a low dark current contribution. These features combine to make the Aspen CG6 an ideal solution for many demanding astronomy and physical science applications.
