Cary 50 UV-Vis spectrophotometers from Varian, Inc., use a xenon flash lamp as the light source, which has the advantages of fast scanning speed, high sensitivity and wide measurement range. It is suitable for the measurement of a variety of sample types.
The document introduces the Varian (now Agilent) Cary 50 UV-Vis Spectrophotometers. It emphasizes the instrument's use of a Xenon flash lamp to achieve excellent noise performance and high light throughput, allowing for rapid scanning across the 190-1100 nm range in less than three seconds.
The maximum scan rate is 24,000 nanometers per minute.
It can scan the whole wavelength range of 190-1100 nm.
The instrument has a data collection rate of an impressive 80 points per second.
