Superior Spectrophotometry Kit

Item Code: SN1055

Principle and Working:

Optical fibres allow great freedom of movement. Used for demonstrations during classes, they will let you move from source to source easily. The simple, intuitive software, with its multi-station system, allows measurement and superimposition of curves. It is ideal for showing the gases making up different bulbs, such as mercury in energy saving light bulbs. Combined with a video projector, the SPID spectrometer will prove indispensable in your classes. Three display modes, simple, coloured and spectroscope mode, are available.




  • Intuitive software.
  • Spectra of any light source can be analysed.
  • Supplied in a briefcase.
  • Different spectrum: ray spectrum, continuous spectrum, fluorescent spectrum can be analysed.
  • No need of external power supply .
  • USB operated.
