Nexera HPLC/UHPLC UV-Vis Detector - SPD-40V

SPD-40V UV-vis detector for hplc and uhplc

Experience highly sensitive measurement and stable analysis throughout the entire wavelength range with the high-performance SPD-40V UV-Vis detector. Noise and drift are minimized by the fully temperature controlled optical system and flow cell. The signal-to-noise ratio is enhanced by an improved optical system and a high-order digital filter. It can be operated in dual wavelength mode that simultaneously provides chromatograms of two wavelengths or ratio chromatograms, and in wavelength scanning mode to provide absorbance spectra of a single peak. The built-in cell ID stores the cell information in the LabSolutions method. Both the deuterium (D2) and tungsten (W) lamps have a built-in chip to monitor usage hours.
