Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 5890 Series II #293637086 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 5890 Series II is a spectrophotometer device capable of measuring the intensity of light and analyzing its various components. This powerful instrument contains a set of highly accurate optical filters that can measure all wavelengths from the ultraviolet, visible and infrared spectrum. It has wavelength accuracy of 0.2nm and can provide precise readings for all possible types of light sources. HP 5890 Series II includes a powerful quartz halogen lamp that can generate broad spectrum light of constant intensity and it comes with a quartz deuterium lamp to measure the IR component of radiation. The light source can be automatically switched or manually set within a range of 200 to 1,100nm. The scanning head of the instrument contains a beam condenser, a monochromator, a sample compartment and a detector. The monochromator's grating determines the resolution of the instrument and is also used to select the wavelength of the light measurement. It is possible to adjust the wavelength resolution between 1nm and 0.2nm to suit the specific application. The sample compartment houses various types of samples, such as solid samples, liquid samples and powder samples. Depending on the sample under test, a sample holder is chosen such as quartz cuvette for liquid samples or sample planes for solid samples. The sample is rotated with a flat sample holder when measuring its UV or visible spectrum characteristics. The detector is a pyroelectric type detector for detecting the intensity of the radiation that is passed through the sample. AGILENT 5890 Series II spectrophotometer comes with various interfaces such as RS232, IEEE-488, Ethernet and optical ports. These interfaces provide flexibility in data acquisition and manipulation. The instrument can be interfaced to a PC and data stored on the PC. The large LCD screen on the instrument provides a wealth of information concerning instrument operation, such as wavelength, resolution settings, scan parameters and the current scan settings. Overall, 5890 Series II spectrophotometer offers reliable and accurate results, making it an ideal choice for a wide variety of applications. It provides high sensitivity and wide wavelength coverage, allowing users to measure a broad range of light sources. In addition, its variety of interfaces facilitates data acquisition and manipulation, both from the instrument and from a PC.
