Variable Resolution

Designed for the most demanding applications the CE 9500 with selectable optical resolution of 0.5, 1, 2 and 4nm and high performance photomultiplier ensures that all experimental requirements can be met.

The spectrum of Benzene vapour shows important spectral detail developed as resolution is increased.

Super position of the Spectra at the four different optical resolutions shown above in 3D graphic format.

Scattering Samples

Strongly scattering or turbid samples may be difficult to measure normally. With the special optical system of the Super Aquarius such samples may be measured successfully.

A willow leaf gives a noisy off scale trace of chlorophyll with peak absorbance of 3.7A. At the turbid sample position a low noise perfect on scale trace is produced.

The improvement results from 25 times more energy reaching the detector.
