The benefits are impressive:

  • Excellent signal-to-noise ratio
  • Incredibly fast measurements
  • Exceptionally low detection limit
  • High short-term and long-term stability
  • No warm-up phase
  • Scanning of spectra as well as measurements at fixed wavelengths

 

 

Simultaneous high-performance diode-array spectrophotometer – precise, fast, simultaneous

The UV VIS spectrophotometers SPECORD® S 600 and SPECORD® S 300 UV VIS or S 300 VIS combine the precision and convenient handling needed in laboratories with speed, reliability and superior optical performance.

 

The analytical advantages:

  • High precision polychromator systems – permanently adjusted and fixed with no moving parts
  • Open sample compartment which accommodates all available accessories of the SPECORD® series
  • Excellent spectral properties, fast measurement of complete spectra in less than 12 milliseconds
  • A high throughput cell carousel with 50 positions
  • BIO package for measurements of small sample volumes, determination of DNA/RNA
  • Self adjusting photometric linearity
  • Automatic stray light correction
  • Easily accessible and interchangeable light sources
  • SCS – Self Check System

The MCS (Multi Channel System) or MMS (Monolithic Miniature Spectrometer) optics have proven their worth based on lasting dependability in laboratory analysis as well as process analysis.

High-precision optics

These polychromator systems, designed to work without any movable components, are the heart of the SPECORD® S 600/ SPECORD® S 300. The high-precision optics consists of an aberration-corrected grating, a mechanical slit and the diode array detector. Encased in a rugged quartz-ceramic body, it is permanently adjusted, fixed and insensitive to external influences.

This design ensures extremely accurate and highly reproducible results. At the same time, the SPECORD® S 600/ SPECORD® S 300 provides all the flexibility needed to solve most analytical problems. Ruggedness, thermal stability as well as its high light yield are additional advantages of the SPECORD® S 600/ SPECORD® S 300.

High-speed spectrometer

With a minimum scan rate of 12 milliseconds, from a spectral range of UV to NIR, the
SPECORD® S 600/ SPECORD® S 300 offer extremely fast analyses.

Fields of application:

  • Chemical and biological laboratories performing qualitative and quantitative determinations
  • Process laboratories where routine sample batches need to be analyzed at high sample throughput

The SPECORD® S 300 is also ideally suited for working either only in the UV or VIS range in combination with all advantages of the diode array technique.

 

Powerful UV VIS spectrophotometer with double-beam mode due to SBT (Split Beam Technology)

Reliable, versatile and robust – SPECORD® 50 combines the high energy throughput of a single-beam spectrophotometer with the stability of a double-beam instrument.

 

The benefits are impressive:

  • Excellent signal-to-noise ratio
  • Incredibly fast measurements
  • Exceptionally low detection limit
  • High short-term and long-term stability
  • No warm-up phase
  • Scanning of spectra as well as measurements at fixed wavelengths

All this is due to Split Beam Technology (SBT). Unlike the classical double-beam spectrophotometer, by far the greater part of the source energy is used for the sample beam. Only a minor share of the radiation energy is branched off, via a beam splitter, and focused on a reference detector.

From the two detector signals, the measuring system of the SPECORD® 50 establishes the photometric result. This means that changes of the single-beam signal, due to variations in the light yield of the source, are compensated. Such variations may occur during source warm-up or ambient temperature changes.
