CrimeScope CS-16-500W

Use & Benefits

Designed for the lab to cover every application of a forensic light source but versatile and rugged enough to be taken to the crime scene, the CrimeScope® CS-16-500W provides output in the UV and VIS and is available with optional IR. It is continuously tunable allowing for complete coverage of the spectrum.

Ease of Use

The CS-16-500W-15F contains an automated filter wheel with an LED readout on the front of the unit. There is a remote control integrated into the working end of the liquid light guide to control wavelength selection. Since the remote is integrated, there is no separate wire, connection, or control to install. An optional foot switch is available for “hands free” operation.

Operate easily with One Hand

With one hand, you can both direct the light and select the wavelength, freeing your other hand for evidence collection. This design – putting the wavelength selecter at the end of the light guide – is a hallmark of SPEX Forensics’s Light Sources.

Infrared Capability

An available option is Infrared output, ideal for forged documents, ink-ink differentiation. Added to the unit is a lightguide with 4 filters that can be plugged into the port on side of instrument. This capability adds 4 infrared wavelengths; LP630, LP715, LP780, LP830.

CrimeScope CS-16-400 and CrimeScope CS-16-10

The Original CrimeScope CS-16-10 introduced in 1993 and later, the CrimeScope CS-16-400, are no longer available. They have been replaced by the CS-16-500W above.

Both earlier CrimeScopes are still being supported by SPEX Forensics.
