The Hach DR6000 UV VIS Spectrophotometer (LPV441.99.00012) sets the benchmark for professional water quality laboratories. Engineered for high-precision UV and visible spectrum analysis, this powerful benchtop instrument combines advanced optics, intuitive touchscreen operation, and smart RFID technology to streamline workflows while eliminating common sources of error.
Whether you’re performing regulatory compliance testing, optimizing treatment processes, or conducting research, the DR6000 delivers reliable, reproducible results with minimal operator intervention.
Key Benefits for Modern Labs
- Comprehensive Testing in One Instrument — Over 250 pre-programmed methods covering critical parameters for municipal water, wastewater, groundwater, surface water, and more.
- UV Capability for Advanced Analysis — Full UV-VIS range enables UV organics, UV nitrate, and other compliance methods not available on VIS-only models like the DR3900.
- RFID-Enabled Error Reduction — Automatically updates calibration factors, verifies reagent expiration, and reduces lot-to-lot variations when used with Hach TNTplus reagents (availability varies by region).
- High Accuracy & Precision — Averages multiple readings, eliminates outliers, and compensates for imperfect glassware.
- Claros Connectivity — Integrates with Hach’s Water Intelligence System for remote data management and greater operational efficiency.
- Built for High-Volume Labs — Optional carousel sample changer and sipper module for increased throughput and consistent optical conditions.
