At Pittcon 2011 Heraeus Noblelight will unveil D2plus, its latest Deuterium lamp, which delivers higher stability and lower optical noise thanks to a new advanced design and ELP technology.
Pittcon is a showcase for scientific and technical innovation with a singular focus on laboratory science.
Heraeus' main focus of the show will be the D2plus, which it claims is a revolutionary new concept that instrument manufacturers can design into their systems in order to benefit from higher throughput and the best precision analytical results.
It was developed using the company's knowledge of advanced lamp design and materials technology, including UV/Quartz Glass and coatings, metals and ceramics.
Deuterium lamps are now available with 0.5 and 1.0mm apertures with a minimum lifetime of 2,000 hours for UV-Vis spectrophotometers, new design HPLC and other demanding UHPLC instruments.
D2plus Deuterium lamps include Heraeus' Enhanced Lifetime Performance (ELP) technology, which Heraeus claims guarantees 50 per cent more initial intensity and greater than 2x residual intensity compared to conventional Deuterium lamps.
Deuterium and Hollow Cathode Lamps, PID and specialty lighting from Heraeus are not only engineered for long lifetime, but also for high precision and stability.
Extensive testing of all light sources ensures they meet the specifications needed to give reliable and reproducible performance for demanding applications.
Heraeus technology provides high quality and capability in modern analytical equipment, reducing cost of ownership and supporting the most sensitive analysis.
The company will be at booth 3434 at Pittcon 2011, to be held at the Georgia World Congress Center, Atlanta, US, from 14-18 March, 2011.
