QHY4040 Pro I BSI Scientific Cooled CMOS Camera
Price as Configured: $45,000.00
QHY4040PRO I is a scientific cooled CMOS camera with GSENSE4040 4K*4K sCMOS sensor. It has a 36.9mm x 36.9mm square sensor with 9.0um pixels in a 4k x 4k array. It has a 36.9*36.9mm image area. 9um pixel size. Since 2023, the QHY4040 Pro has upgraded to QHY4040 Pro I. They are of the same function and price, while Pro I has a shorter body.
QHY4040 PRO I has both the FSI version and BSI version. The FSI version has a peak QE of 74%, 70ke full-well (at the lowest gain), 4e readout noise (at the highest gain). The BSI version has a peak QE of 90%, 39ke full-well (at the lowest gain), 2.3e readout noise(at the highest gain), and a wide spectrum from UV to Near IR.
The typical application of this camera is astronomy imaging, spectrum, dynamic x-ray DR, satellite tracking, etc. Contact us if you are interested in the LQ version.
SHIPPING NOTE: Shipping cost will be determined after the order is made and must be paid before the camera will ship. A shipping quote can be obtained on request.
