This instrument is capable of quantitatively determining a liquid
sample and measuring the absorbance, transmittance,
absorption spectrum, transmission spectrum and
absorbance/transmittance change with time.
With this instrument, the light source is turned on only during
measurement. The instrument can thus save a larger amount
of electric power than the spectrophotometer with a continuous
light source. Also, the instrument is standard-equipped with the
automatically turning 6-cell measurement function, thus
permitting quantitative analysis through simple operation.
