What Are Spectrophotometers?

Spectrophotometers are scientific instruments that are used to measure the absorption or transmission of light by a sample. They are used extensively in various scientific fields, including chemistry, biochemistry, and environmental science, to determine the properties of a sample. Trusted brands, such as Unico, provide a wide range of accessories and replacement parts to ensure that spectrophotometers remain in optimal condition and provide reliable and accurate results for many years to come.

Unico SpectroQuest SQ4802 Double Beam UV-Visible Spectrophotometer

One of the most popular brands of spectrophotometers is Unico. The Unico SpectroQuest SQ4802 Double Beam UV-Visible Spectrophotometer is a versatile and reliable instrument that provides high-quality results. It is a UV-Visible spectrophotometer that can measure light in the range of 190 - 1100 nm, which is ideal for a wide range of applications, including Spectrum Scanning, Multiple Components, and DNA/Protein.

The Unico SpectroQuest SQ4802 has two detectors that measure test sample cell and reference respectively and simultaneously for optimizing measurement accuracy. It features a large, easy-to-read LCD display that shows the wavelength, absorbance, and concentration of the sample. The instrument has a user-friendly interface and is easy to operate, making it an excellent choice for both novice and experienced users.

Unico S1205 Visible Spectrophotometer

Another popular Unico unit is the S1205 Visible Spectrophotometer. This instrument is designed specifically for measuring visible light in the range of 325 - 1000 nm. It has a compact and lightweight design, making it easy to move around the laboratory as needed. The wide path length of up to 50 nm makes this unit ideal for water testing, environmental and petroleum industry testing.

The Unico S1205 Visible Spectrophotometer can self-calibrate as needed, and can be pre-programmed for up to 200 test methods. It features a large, easy-to-read display that shows the wavelength, absorbance, and concentration of the sample. The instrument is also equipped with a USB port that allows users to transfer data to a computer for further analysis.

Important Accessories

Accessories are an essential component of any spectrophotometer. Two important accessories are glass cuvettes and lamps. Glass cuvettes are small, transparent tubes that hold the sample and allow light to pass through. They are essential for accurate and reliable results, as they help to prevent contamination of the sample and ensure that the light passes through the sample evenly.

Lamps are another critical accessory for spectrophotometers. They provide the light source needed for the instrument to function. The type of lamp used in a spectrophotometer can have a significant impact on the quality of the results. Unico offers a wide range of lamps for their spectrophotometers, including deuterium and halogen-tungsten lamps.
