The Macylab M-2800 is a highly reliable double-beam UV-Vis spectrophotometer operating across the 190nm to 1100nm wavelength range. Engineered for a variety of demanding analytical applications, it features an adjustable spectral bandwidth of 1.0nm or 2.0nm to accommodate specific testing requirements and analytical resolution standards.
Equipped with a 10-inch touch LCD screen and built with an optimized LSI circuit design, the instrument functions as a comprehensive standalone workstation. Utilizing a combination of an imported deuterium lamp and a tungsten halogen lamp with a silicon photodiode detector, the M-2800 provides laboratories with a stable optical platform suitable for biological research, pharmaceuticals, and environmental protection.
Key Features
Double Beam Optical System: Splits the optical path to measure the sample and reference simultaneously. This configuration actively compensates for light source variations, ensuring a highly stable baseline (0.0003A/h @500nm) and low stray light (≤0.02% τ).
Adjustable Spectral Bandwidth: Offers two selectable bandwidth settings (1.0nm and 2.0nm), allowing operators to adjust the optical resolution according to different sample types or standard compliance requirements.
10-Inch Touch LCD Screen: Provides an intuitive interface for operators to set up tests, establish standard quantitative curves, and view analytical graphs directly on the instrument without requiring an external computer.
Comprehensive Analytical Functions: The onboard software supports quantitative measurements, multi-wavelength testing, kinetic tests, DNA/protein concentration analysis, and full-band or segmented wavelength scanning.
Flexible Data Management & Output: Designed to save measurement parameters and test data even after the power is turned off. It includes a USB interface to output data directly to a printer and supports more flexible measurements via optional PC control.
