The design, spectral coverage and sensitivity of Isophot-S, one of the four sub-experiments of Isophot, are described. Isophot-S is a low resolution near infrared spectrometer, designed to take full advantage of the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) telescope with its low infrared background, wide field of view, and the complete absence of atmospheric attenuation. It consists of two grating spectrometers which cover the wavelength ranges 2.5 to 5 microns and 6 to 12 microns at resolutions of 0.04 microns and 0.09 microns respectively. The scientific capabilities of the equipment are underlined.
