UV/Vis/NIR Spectrophotometer

The Perkin Elmer LAMBDA 1050 is a high performance UV/Vis/NIR double beam, double monochromator, ratio-recording spectrophotometer. A 150 mm integrating sphere accessory allows diffuse reflectance and transmission measurements.

Instrument Features:
Wavelength range 185 nm – 3300 nm.
Photometric Range: 0.0002- 9 AU.
Liquid and solid samples measuring capabilities.
Sample thickness compensated detector optics.
3 detector module: photomultiplier R6872, 3-stage wide band Peltier cooled InGaAs and single-stage Peltier cooled PbS.
Spectral bandwidth : 0.05 nm – 5 nm UV/Vis and 0.2 nm – 20 nm NIR.
Programmable attenuators for high absorbance measurements.
UV WinLab V6 operating software.

Diffuse Reflectance and Diffuse Transmission measurements can be performed using the 150mm Integrating Sphere accessory.
