Camspec, a UK specialist suppler of spectrophotometers, has completed its latest family of products with the launch of the new M508 basic programmable UV/visible instrument
Like its smaller visible M108 'brother' instrument, which was launched late last year, the M508 is fitted with stepper motors for wavelengths and filters.
Its stylish nine-button keypad and a four line, 20-character display enable users to store and recall up to 200 method statements or sets of results.
However as a UV/visible instrument, the M508 offers a 200-1000nm wavelength range and low stray light of 0.1%T at 220nm and 340nm.
It features tungsten-halogen and deuterium light sources and a list price of £1995 ex VAT makes it highly appealing for many applications.
Data output from this new intelligent UV/visible spectrophotometer can include method number and name, wavelength, date and time, %T, Abs, concentration and unit, and the instrument can be supplied with an in-built 40 character thermal printer.
PC application software options include concentration curves, timescan and wavelength scanning.
"I believe the M508 offers a package of features, benefits, performance and reliability by which other instrument manufacturers will now be judged" said Camspec managing director Tony Moss.
He continued: "Our product range now provides end users with a wide range of application flexibility, and offers hardware and software compatibility to technicians working with different Camspec instruments in a multi-national environment."
