is small simple unit for use in analytical, preparative and FLASH liquid chromatography applications based on measurement of absorption of UV radiation of 254nm. The unit is easy for operating, reference and sample signal are available for detector diagnostics. Work hours of lamp are counted using build in counter.
There is possible to control the unit using external logic signals or using RS 232. The output signal is available in digital and analogue form on the output connector. The detector is equipped with an interference filter 254 nm to reduce the others spectral lines of mercury lamp.
Very interesting are the small dimensions of unit.
There is possible to use three type of cells:
| Wavelength | 254 nm |
| Light source | low pressure mercury lamp Nk4/4 |
| Time constant | 1.0 sec. |
| Noise level at empty cell | ± 8 x 10-5 AU |
| Drift at empty cell (after 1 hour) | 8 x 10-4 AU/hr |
| Absorbance output | 0,5V/au |
| Power supply | 230 V ± 10%, 50 Hz or 115/100 V± 10%, 50-60 Hz |
| Power input | 34 VA |
| Dimensions (W x H x D) | 165 x 178 x 250 mm (6.50” x 7.0” x 9.84”) |
| Weight | 4kg |
Important notice: Output signal of the detector is directly proportional to the optical path of the cell. Since the optical paths of cells may be changed, noise and drift levels are referred to the optical path of 10 mm, corresponding to the AU definition.
