Analytik Jena UK has introduced a UV/Vis spectrophotometer targeted at industries such as life sciences, medicine, food and beverage, water, wastewater, pharmaceutical, cosmetics and textiles.
The new Specord Plus spectrophotometer provides enhanced photometric and kinetic measurements.
Featuring a large sample compartment, the new UV/Vis spectrophotometer includes a range of built-in analysis methods.
Kinetic measurement capabilities have been enhanced by increasing the data acquisition speed to a maximum of 1,000 data points per second.
The use of sippers, flow cells and temperature-controlled cell changers can not only speed up sample throughput but also increase measurement accuracy for temperature-dependent reactions.
The Specord Plus benefits from true double-beam optics and excellent long-term stability thanks to its Cooled Double Detection feature.
A special sample cell position can be used for the analysis of turbid samples.
Sophisticated software control featuring pre-loaded measurement methods makes the instrument simple to use, according to the company.
A special validation software module checks that all important spectrophotometer operating parameters are in compliance with internal or external quality standards, such as Ph.Eur, USP, TGA and ASTM, to ensure that measurement results conform to high standards of accuracy and precision.
Comprehensive user management facilities, an electronic signature facility and an audit trail ensure that the Specord Plus control software satisfies the requirements of FDA 21 CFR Part 11.
The instrument is also supplied with IQ/OQ documents.
Accessories include holders for diverse types of cells, ranging from cells with 100mm path lengths to cells for micro-volume samples.
Many cell holders are provided with water or Peltier temperature control.
Other accessories include attachments for dissolution measurements, solid sample holders, transmission and reflectance measurements, immersion probes and a range of auto-samplers, cell changers and sippers.
The new spectrophotometer comes with a 10-year warranty.
