Bibby Scientific has introduced Jenway's 73 series spectrophotometer range.
The range includes entry-level instruments with a narrow spectral bandwidth of 5nm and an absorbance range of -0.3A to +2.5A, all within a space-saving design.
The patent-pending design of the 73 series minimises the overall footprint of the instrument by incorporating the large graphical display into the instrument's lid.
The clear display is suitable for demonstrations and enables live spectrum and kinetics scans to be viewed.
The instruments have the additional option of an integral printer for further space saving - a benefit for teaching laboratories, where bench space is at a premium.
All four models are supplied with free bidirectional PC software.
The advanced models, 7310 and 7315, feature a USB port on the front of the instrument that enables results and methods to be saved directly to a USB memory stick.
The new range includes four spectrophotometers: models 7300 and 7310 cover the visible region of the spectrum, while models 7305 and 7315 use a flash xenon lamp to extend the wavelength range into the ultraviolet region of the spectrum.
The 73 series has been designed to enhance productivity by offering a range of accessories, including an automated eight-cell turret, sipper and peltier pumps, adjustable path length holders, test-tube holders and micro-cuvette holders.
The spectrophotometers are covered by a three-year warranty, which includes the xenon lamp.
Other features include icon-driven software, auto-logging capabilities and a navigation system.
The 73 series spectrophotometers are suitable for use in education and routine quality control applications.
