Spectrophotometers are used to measure the concentration of a known substance in a solution. They do this by passing a light through the substance and measuring light intensity as a function of wavelength. Either single beam or double beam spectrophotometers can be purchased. In a single beam spectrophotometer, a reference standard is used to measure light intensity before and after the sample is loaded. For double beam spectrophotometers the beam is split with one beam passing through the standard and the other through the sample to compare intensities. While single beam spectrophotometers are typically less expensive and have higher sensitivity, double beam spectrophotometers tend to be more stable and easier to use. Spectrophotometers are important pieces of equipment in chemistry, physics, biochemistry, clinical, and materials testing labs.

Our flexible UV-Vis system can be fitted with long pathlength cuvettes and solid sample transmission or reflectance accessories, and is ideal for remote UV-Vis absorbance analysis, when fitted with fiber optic probes.
The xenon source lamp has a 10 year replacement warranty (for Cary 60 instruments purchased from Agilent or participating partners), requires zero warmup, and causes no photodegradation of samples. Fast reactions can be recorded with 80 data points per second. The Cary 60 is well-suited as a routine UV-Vis spectrophotometer or for use in teaching labs. Optional 21 CFR Part 11 software tools are available.
Features - Reduce time-consuming and expensive lamp replacements, and minimize instrument revalidation costs with the unique Agilent xenon source lamp.
- Safely measure life-science samples without sample photodegradation and ensure you get the correct answer every time with the Cary 60 UV-Vis spectrophotometer.
- Get reliable UV-Vis spectrophotometer performance with fiber-optic measurement probes. Why use cuvettes when you can bring the UV-Vis instrument to the sample and get accurate results in a fraction of the time?
- Measure small volumes and precious samples accurately and reproducibly with a highly focused beam image.
- Scan the entire wavelength range (190 to 1100 nm) in under three seconds and collect data from single or multiple wavelengths at 80 data points per second.
- Take advantage of the Cary 60 UV-Vis spectrophotometer’s comprehensive range of accessories to accurately characterize the widest variety of liquid and solid samples.
- Tailor the Cary WinUV software to suit your analytical requirements. From classroom to research laboratories through R&D and regulated QA/QC environments, simplify your UV-Vis spectroscopy measurements and finish more in less time.
