Key Features

Product Features

Key design, performance, usability, and safety advantages.

Diverse types of carriers:

Suitable for 96 well plates, 384 well plates, ultramicro plates, and cuvette, with a variety of choices to meet your experimental needs. The cuvette mode has independent cuvette software, which can be directly used for photometric detection, kinetic or spectral scanning, and standard curve establishment. The ultra trace detection plate is designed for rapid detection of small volume samples. Supports simultaneous analysis of up to 16 samples. Users can quickly and conveniently clear the tested samples for continuous measurement.

Wide and accurate lighting system:

Using a flickering xenon lamp as the light source, wavelength selection is carried out through an advanced grating monochromator system. The wavelength detection range is 200~1100 nm, and full spectrum scanning can be performed in 1 nm steps. The self check function of the instrument during startup checks key components such as the light source, detector, and carrier position to ensure stable and reliable operation of the instrument.

Equipped with incubation and oscillation functions:

Equipped with incubation function, the average temperature difference between wells is ±0.5°C at room temperature +4°C~65°C and 37°C. The oscillation frequency of linear oscillation mode is divided into low, medium, and high gears for users to choose from.
