Absorbance, % Transmission, Concentration and Rate
Educational experiments and UV/Visible tutorial
Analogue output for connection to chart recorder
Grafico PC utility software
The Libra S4 measures Absorbance, % Transmission and concentration as well as being able to output absorbance–time plots directly to chart recorder. The instrument is delivered with Grafico PC utility software package and a serial lead, providing the student with the means to capture, print and interpret a wavelength scan from the instrument on a PC; the data for the scan or other results may be easily exported from Grafico to Excel. Note that Grafico also includes an educational tutorial on UV/Visible spectrophotometry.
The Libra S4 accepts standard 10mm pathlength glass or disposable cuvettes. A test tube adapter set is available for 10, 12 and 16mm. In the event of a spill, the cell holder may be removed for cleaning. The instrument is delivered with a starter pack of disposable cuvettes.
