AquaMate 8000 UV-Vis spectrophotometer:
- Delivers unsurpassed data quality by utilizing dual-beam optical geometry and a high-intensity xenon lamp that fires pulses of light only when taking a measurement.
- The light from the xenon lamp is very intense, allowing a beam splitter to extract and measure a small portion of light to an internal reference detector without a loss of performance in sample measurement. This provides simultaneous measurement of the sample with real-time reference beam correction for each flash of the lamp.
- Dual beam optical configuration ensures each measurement is as accurate as possible with reference beam correction on each data point, no drift over long measurements and no peak shift with scan speed changes.
- Xenon lamp provides excellent performance over the entire wavelength range of 190 to 1100nm. It also provides intense light in the UV region of the spectrum adding sensitivity for life science, environmental and organic chemistry applications. It typically provides 5 to 7 years of maintenance-free performance and requires no warm-up. It will not damage sensitive samples since it does not continuously expose samples to intense UV light and ensures sample temperature stability, since it does not change the compartment temperature.
- 1.8nm spectral bandwidth provides optimal system resolution. It permits more light energy to reach the sample resulting in lower detection limits and superior signal-to-noise performance.
- Equipped with enhanced wavelength scanning technology that acquires high quality spectral data quickly. The instrument accelerates through wavelength scans at speeds up to 4,200nm per minute. The exceptionally large photometric range allows accurate measurements of small absorbance changes even when using highly absorbing blank samples. Scan data can be analyzed to determine peak and valley wavelengths and to perform peak height and 3-point net calculations for a sloping baseline.
- Patented out-of-plane monochromator configuration enables maximum performance with a minimum footprint.
- Reference detector ensures the most accurate data is measured from each flash of the lamp.
- Precision silicon detectors allow measurements from the UV to the near-IR.
AquaMate 7000 Vis spectrophotometer:
- Offers similar performance and features as the AquaMate 8000 in a visible-only configuration.
- User interface is easy to use and the 5.0nm spectral bandwidth is ideal for most routine concentration measurements.
- When high resolution is not required to resolve closely spaced peaks, the added energy throughput extends the sensitivity of the analysis and increases the signal-to-noise ratio for dilute samples. Precision electronics and a simple, single-beam optical geometry provides accurate results.
- Tungsten-halogen lamp (typical lifetime 1000 hours).
