Thermo Scientific Aquamate 8100 – UV-Visible Spectrophotometer, 190 to 1100nm, Dual-beam

Thermo Scientific Aquamate 8100 – UV-Visible Spectrophotometer, 190 to 1100nm, Dual-beam

The AquaMate 8100 UV-Visible Spectrophotometer delivers unsurpassed data quality throughout the entire UV to the near-IR regions of the spectrum. Dual-beam optical geometry provides accurate measurements and the high-intensity, instant-on xenon lamp has a five-year lifespan. Superior signal-to-noise performance and fast wavelength scanning let you quickly and reliably acquire high-quality spectral data.
 

Pre-programmed Methods:

• More than 260 preprogrammed methods offer easy and convenient measurements using Orion AQUAfast™, Merck™ or CHEMetrics™ chemistries
• Preprogrammed methods can also be adapted for new chemistries or operators can create their own custom methods and calibration curves
• Instruments allow a one-point adjustment on any preprogrammed method to correct for variations in batch reagent chemistries

Versatility:

• Glove friendly 7-inch touch screen controller
• Wide variety of vials sizes can be used, including 10mm square vials, 20 and 50mm rectangular vials and an adjustable round vial holder that accommodates vials and test tube from 12 to 25 mm OD

Verification:

• Performance verification tests ensure wavelength accuracy and instrument functionality
• Each verification report gives the time, date and instrument serial number in accordance with GLP and GMP
• Built-in wavelength accuracy test is compatible with either the internal lamp or external calibrated standards
• Built-in test methods for stray light, noise and resolution are available to validate instrument performance further

Flexible nm bandwidth

The Orion AquaMate 8100 UV-Visible Spectrophotometer balances regulatory compliance with sensitivity. A 2.0 nm spectral bandwidth provides optimal system resolution, permitting more light energy to reach the sample, thus resulting in lower detection limits and superior signal-tonoise performance.
 

Fast wavelength scanning

The Orion AquaMate 8100 UV-Visible Spectrophotometer is equipped with enhanced wavelength scanning technology that acquires high quality spectral data quickly. The instrument accelerates through wavelength scans at speeds up to 1600 nm/min. 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 wavelength. The scan data can also be saved to the USB memory stick.
