The HSCo TSD series is a double-beam UV-Vis spectrophotometer with a 10.1-inch colour touch screen. It covers 190 to 1100 nm, compares sample and reference beams at the same time for stable, accurate readings, and handles photometry, quantitative analysis, kinetics, spectrum scans, DNA/protein and multi-wavelength tests. Deuterium and tungsten lamps swap without realignment, and 1024 MB of memory stores results and working curves.
Why labs choose it
- Double beam. Compensates for lamp drift in real time.
- 190 – 1100 nm with a 1200 lines/mm grating.
- 10.1-inch colour touch screen with a Windows-style interface.
- Many test modes: photometric, quantitative, kinetics, spectrum scan, DNA/protein, multi-wavelength.
- 1024 MB memory; export to Excel via USB.
- Plug-in lamps. Deuterium and tungsten, no optical realignment needed.
- Large sample chamber for 5 – 100 mm cuvettes.
