The SC-12-M is a general purpose sample chamber that can be configured in multiple ways to address a number of application requirements. The SC-12-M includes 4 optical ports (on three sides and one on the top) as well as a side door for easy access to the sample area.
Three of the side walls feature optical ports with a Sciencetech standard B4 hole pattern as well as removable anodized access panels that can be machined to accommodate most types of feedthroughs including electrical, liquid and gas.

The SC-12-M can be configured for spectroscopy applications such as diffuse reflection and transmission spectroscopy, or as a light tight reaction chamber for photoelectrolysis research. The 2.2" diameter opening on the top port of the sample chamber is designed to mate to Sciencetech's line of lens based solar simulators such as the SF or SLB series simulators, the Solar LightLine solar simulator, as well as Sciencetech's line of 201-100 lamp houses.

The base of the sample chamber is an metric optical breadboard with M6 tapped holes. For the Imperial version see model SC-12.

The SC-12-M is 311x 311x 219mm (12.5" x 12.5" x 8.625")(LxH) with internal dimensions of approximay 298 x 298 x 200mm (11.75" x 11.75" x 7.8").
Side inputs have a 3" optical height which can be increased using the included baseplate and levelling feet.
The baseplate is 355 x 355 x 6.3mm (14" x 14" x 1/4").

The standard system does not come with a sample holder. Ask sales representative for more information on sample chamber.
