Facilitates emissions spectroscopy experiments with the PASCO Wireless Spectrometer. Simply insert the Fiber Optic Cable into the cuvette holder and point the end of the cable at the light source.
See the Buying Guide for this item's required, recommended, and additional accessories.
Product Summary
This 1m Fiber Optic Cable extends PASCO's Wireless (VIS) Spectrometer's capabilities beyond simple cuvette investigations, allowing students to perform emissions spectroscopy experiments using the Wireless Spectrometer (VIS). The cable is transparent to support the entire range reported by the Wireless Spectrometer (VIS), PS-2600.
Extend absorption studies to external beakers with a narrow beam, broad-spectrum flashlight (tungsten bulb) to follow titrations or timed reactions!
Designed for use with
- Spectral emission tubes
- Metallic flame emission studies
- Follow titrations with narrow beam broad spectrum (tungsten) flashlight through beaker
- Visible spectrometer only (opaque in the UV region (below 380 nm)
Applications
- Emission studies (Flame and Spectral tubes)
- Color change reaction outside the cuvette (colorimetric titrations)

Spectrometers
A spectrometer is a device that allows scientists to dissect light into its constituent colors, akin to separating the vibrant hues of a rainbow. By precisely dispersing the light, spectrometers provide a unique window into the physical and chemical properties of objects.
