Used WATERS 2487 #123901 for sale

WATERS 2487 Dual λ Absorbance Detector is a scientific instrument that is used to measure the concentration of compounds in liquid solutions. It employs UV/Visible spectrophotometry, meaning it measures the amount of a substance by detecting the amount of light that is absorbed by the solution while the light passes through it. This information is then used to calculate the concentration of the substance present. 2487 consists of two mobile metal-clad optical cells that are connected to a monochromator, which provides a controlled and stable light source of a single wavelength. The monochromator can be quickly and accurately tuned to two wavelengths, selected by the user. This allows the user to measure two absorbance wavelengths simultaneously. The wavelength range covers 185 to 900 nanometers. WATERS 2487 also includes an electrical power supply, two user-controllable diaphragm valves and accessories for integrating the system into larger automated liquid handling systems. The detector can also be integrated with WATERS MassLynx software and MS/MS tandem mass spectrometry software. The two absorbance channels are equipped with precision photodiode arrays, which convert the measure light signal to an electrical signal. The electrical signal is then amplified and processed by a microprocessor. It is then sent to the control panel, where it is displayed in digital form, typically as the absorbance of the compound. 2487 provides a wide range of benefits over its competitors, such as high sensitivity, low noise, and wide dynamic range, making it suitable for analyzing a wide range of compounds. It also offers low drift, which means that it can be easily maintained for long runs. Overall, WATERS 2487 Dual λ Absorbance Detector is a reliable, high-performance tool for measuring the concentration of compounds in liquid solutions. It provides users with the ability to measure two absorbance wavelengths simultaneously, offering higher throughputs over single wavelength spectrophotometers. Moreover, its ease of use and maintenance makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
