How it works Whereas conventional laboratory spectrophotometers utilize diode arrays as the color detector and are limited to analysis of solid or liquid samples at room temperature, Equispec OCS uses CCD (charge-coupled device), or video camera technology, that looks into the melt through a fiber-optic cable.
Much smaller than many spectrophotometers, Chameleon is battery operated for use around the shop floor or out in the field rather than in the laboratory.
As the newest member of PerkinElmer's best-selling family of UV/Vis spectrophotometers, the EZ301 combines full functionality with robust, stand-alone operation, an integral full-size screen, and a spill-proof membrane key pad.
