Educational UV/Vis Spectrophotometer Line

High Quality, Low Cost

AquaQuest spectrophotometer, designed for water quality test methods

When cost is a primary consideration of selection, the Series 1000 provides low cost, high specification, quality instruments for both the UV and visible ranges. The designs offer an ideal combination of performance, quality and reliability for educational use; as is witnessed by the large number of Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges who are multiple users of the range.

Ease of Operation

With only six, carefully programmed operating keys, the Series 1000 spectrophotometers are exceptionally easy to use. Up-down keys, with automatic slew rate acceleration, make wavelength selection, to 0.1nm, convenient and rapid. Absorbance, Transmittance or Concentration may be measured; the latter using standards or by entering a factor.

Wavelength Precision

Very precise wavelength selection, with readout to 0.1nm, provide the high degree of reproducibility needed for accuracy, particularly when measuring on a sloping background.

Convenient Operation

Design advantages of the series 1000 instruments include self test and calibration at switch on, automatic lamp and filter selection coupled to wavelength and high overall stability eliminating frequent resetting of the absorbance zero when making extended measurements.

Deuterium Lamp Save

UV-visible instruments allow the Deuterium lamp to be switched off when working in the visible region, to extend lamp life. Switch on is automatic if a UV wavelength is selected. Lamps are guaranteed for 1500 hours and are fitted with an hours of use indicator.

  In 1997 the Office of Water Quality of the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) instituted a new monitoring policy.  Instead of just sampling water, they began sampling fish also. Sampling fish tissue enabled the “environmental scientists to measure the regional magnitude and extent of fish tissue contamination by specific bioaccumulating elements or compounds.” After

  The search for ecologically-friendly biodegradeable packaging materials has twisted down some rather unusual paths.  Sure, you’d like to come up with a replacement container for your restaurant leftovers, but have you ever thought of making packaging foam material from potato starch and fish parts?  A research team led by the Agricultural Research Service of the
