Main Features and Benefits

The M501 is a single beam scanning UV/Visible spectrophotometer with an on-board LCD display and keypad offering local control.

Main features include:

  • Wavelength range: 190 to 1100nm
  • High performance optics - 4nm bandpass (2nm option available)
  • Low cost consumable items
  • 4 cell manual changer fitted as standard
  • Local Control consumables - all methods are included
  • Basic Mode - measures Absorbance, Transmission and Concentration
  • Quantitative Mode - up to 10 standard solutions may be used for a calibration
  • Wavelength Scanning Mode - 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.2 and 5nm scan intervals
  • Scan speeds from 75 to 2000 nm/minute
  • Kinetics Mode - for time course scanning or reaction rates
  • DNA / Protein Mode - concentration and DNA purity are calculated
  • Multi-wavelength Mode - up to 10 wavelengths
  • Performance Validation Mode - for the GLP compliant laboratory

Other features include:

The sealed and solvent-resistant tactile keypad has alpha-numeric entry for user file names and user entry of units

  • The M501 has a real-time clock for date and time stamping of results

  • Lamps may be turned off and the lamp usage may be monitored. The status of the lamps is always displayed on the screen

  • Full A4 print-outs of graphs and tables of results may be obtained using popular inexpensive printers such as an HP Deskjet

  • The Print-out button also allows the screen display to be printed at any time

  • Non-volatile memory provides storage for up to 30 methods / results. A method may be simply set up by selecting the tyides storage for up to 30 methods / results. A method may be simply set up by selecting the type of measurement and pressing the LOAD button

  • When a spectrophotometer arrives at the measurement wavelength, blanking is required, so the M501 performs this automatically

  • The M501 has a large sample compartment (225mm deep x 115mm wide x 120mm high) which can accommodate an 8-cell changer and 100mm pathlength cells. The optical height is 15mm above the cell base

  • The large synthetic covers allow the M501 to run cool and this minimises warm-up effects

  • The absence of flat external surfaces or cooling vents discourages spillage onto or into the instrument

  • The rugged steel base and enclosed monochromator assembly ensure the calibration is stable for years of instrument use

  • A wide range of accessories are available including a peristaltic sipper system, an 8 position automatic cell changer and a number of Windows™ based consumables packages
