In 1979, SPECTRO set the standard in the category of portable spectrometers with the first SPECTROTEST which was established worldwide. With the second generation SPECTROTEST, SPECTRO not only continued the successful course it set, but also set new benchmarks with analytical performance, user-friendliness and flexibility.

   At the heart of SPECTROTEST is an innovative optical system. The ICAL (Intelligent Calibration Logic) system is also an innovation. It is an all-optical auto-adjustment and all-program auto-recalibration system with 5 resolutions on a single standard sample for all programs in less than 2 minutes. The combined development of these two innovative components is a milestone in spectrometer technology and together with other high-quality components such as arc/spark excitation make SPECTROTEST the most successful spectrometer in its class.
