6285 Fluorimeter, PMT Detector
6285 fluorimeter, PMT detector, 190 to 850nm wavelength. Supplied with 100 disposable cuvettes and mains adapter for use on 90 to 230V.
Where applications generate an Emission wavelength between 650 and 850nm, and the high sensitivity of a photomultiplier is still required, the model 6285 will fit the bill. The measurement of Chlorophyll a, Algal Pigments and Rhodamine B are just three examples of where this enhanced wavelength range will be required, while all the general applications can still be carried out.
Like all models in the 62 Series the 6285 can display concentration values based on a calibration with one to six standards. A simple step-by-step procedure enables a calibration curve to be generated hence the accurate determination of sample concentrations over a wide range.
When working in the simple Raw Fluoresence mode the Auto-Set Gain function ensures the optimum reading resolution is achieved by measuring the fluorescence produced by the highest standard/ sample and automatically setting this to 95% of the full range.
On all of the models up to 20 methods can be created, then stored for future use. These methods can be locked so change or modification cannot be made without the entry of a security PIN code. To further conform to GLP an operator ID and calibration reminder can also be set. For temperature sensitive assays the optional electrically heated cuvette holder can be used.
62 Series Fluorimeters
Three models are available to cover a wide range of applications. The 6280 model is ideal for the most sensitive determinations with emission wavelengths up to 650nm. When higher emission wavelengths are required the 6285 with its red-enhanced detector is the unit of choice. For less sensitive applications and a broader wavelength range up to 1100nm the low cost 6270 unit is more suitable.
With press-to-read operation and Total Energy Transfer (TET) technology the output of the high-energy xenon lamp is maximised and its expected life extended so that it should never need replacing within the normal lifetime of the unit. The high quality optics are complemented by the Intelligent Filter Modules (IFM) that are identified by the unit, generating error messages should the wrong filters be fitted or their positions be incorrect.
Each fluorimeter model offers intuitive operation with a user interface based on logical menus that can be navigated from the simple keypad. Up to 20 methods can be created without restriction and saved for future use. They can also be locked against accidental change by password entry. The permanent time and date tag on every stored reading supports Good Laboratory Practice, while calibration reminders and operator identity can also be entered to support conformance and traceability of results.
All fluorimeter models are powered from an external, universal mains adapter suitable for use from 90V to 230V.
