  • Plug & Play sample modules for easy setup and flexibility.
  • Multiple detector ports with NIR upgradeability.
  • Ultrafast data acquisition for steady state and lifetime measurements.
  • Power-saving features with automatic lamp power down when not in use.
Specifications
  • Optics: All-reflective for wavelength-independent focus.
  • Detection Technique: Single Photon Counting.
  • Light Source: 150 W CW Ozone-free Xenon arc lamp.
  • Monochromators: Czerny-Turner design with dual grating turret.
  • Spectral Coverage: Excitation 230 nm - 1000 nm; Emission 200 nm - >870 nm.
  • Detectors: Emission Detector (PMT-900), Reference Detector, and Absorbance Detector.
  • Sensitivity: Signal-to-Noise Ratio >10,000:1.
  • Dimensions: 104 cm x 59 cm x 32 cm; Weight: 55 kg.
Extensions and Models

The FS5 Spectrofluorometer-1

The FS5 is a fully integrated, purpose-built spectrofluorometer. Suited for analytical and research laboratories, the FS5 can handle the speed of routine analysis and the sensitivity of demanding research requirements. Comprehensive Fluoracle® software allows for astonishing ease of use and the design concept enables maximum flexibility, with multiple measurement modes all in one instrument: > Steady State Fluorescence Key Features >10,000:1 Water Raman SNR, high sensitivity allows for detection of very weak fluorescence signals Multiple detector ports Two emission ports and NIR upgradeability makes the FS5 unique in its class Ultrafast data acquisition for steady state & lifetime > Fluorescence Lifetime (TCSPC) > Phosphorescence Lifetime (MCS) > Spectral Coverage into the Near-Infrared (NIR) Plug & Play sample modules for easy setup and flexibiltiy > Polarisation and Anisotropy (POL) Whether you need to measure excitation and emission spectra, quantum yields, kinetics, temperature and excitation-emission maps, or even phosphorescence and fluorescence lifetimes, the FS5 with its range of advanced accessories sets the new standard for fluorescence spectroscopy. Power saving features as standard - lamp powers down when not in use
