This document provides a detailed overview of the technical specifications of the Varian Cary 50 UV-Vis spectrophotometer.
This document provides typical specifications for the Varian (now Agilent) Cary 50 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer. The instrument features a Czerny-Turner monochromator with a holographic grating, operating in a wavelength range of 190 to 1100 nm. It utilizes a Xenon pulse lamp and dual silicon diode detectors for high-resolution measurements.
The datasheet details key performance metrics such as photometric accuracy, stray light levels at specific wavelengths, and scan rates up to 24,000 nm/min. Physical specifications include instrument dimensions of 590 mm x 500 mm x 205 mm (WxDxH) and a weight of 21 kg. It also outlines recommended environmental conditions for storage and operation.
