Description:
The UV/Vis Spectrophotometer PG instruments T90+ is a high performance double beam scanning spectrophotometer with a variable (0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0nm) spectral bandwidth. The double beam optical design combined with a high specification holographic grating gives excellent wavelength separation allowing the user to measure close adjacent wavelengths with excellent sensitivity. Its modular design of the sample compartment allows for ease of use of a wide range of optional accessories ensuring accurate analysis of various sample types including liquids, thin films and powders. The T90+ spectrophotometer has full connectivity to the UV-Win software for instrument control, data acquisition and interpretation of measurement results.
