UV-VIS Double Beam Spectrophotometer
T80 UV-VIS Double Beam Spectrophotometer | PG Instruments UK
The T80 is a high performance double beam spectrophotometer available with a fixed (2nm) or variable (0.5, 1, 2, 5nm) spectral bandwidth, which is innovative in terms of instrument application, mechanical and optical design, electronic control, and software whilst retaining features that are well established and accepted through the industry
The T80 series of UV-Visible spectrophotometers are able to carry out photometric measurements, spectrum scans, quantitative determination, and DNA/Protein analysis.
The T80 range consists of two models:
- T80 UV-Vis instrument offering a fixed bandwidth of 2nm.
- T80+ UV-Vis instrument offering a variable bandwidth of 0.5, 1, 2 or 5nm.
Product Description
The T80 is a high-performance double-beam spectrophotometer available with a fixed (2nm) or variable (0.5, 1, 2, 5nm) spectral bandwidth.

The T80 series of UV-Visible Spectrophotometers are able to carry out photometric measurement, spectrum scans, quantitative determination and DNA/Protein analysis. When interfaced to a PC using the UV-Win software, many more features are available including three dimensional spectrum, kinetic measurements, method and datastorage, exportation of data in multiple formats and GLP administration features. Both instruments have a spectral range of 190-1100nm.
The T80 range consists of two models:
T80 UV-Vis instrument offering a fixed bandwidth of 2nm. T80+ UV-Vis instrument offering a variable bandwidth of 0.5, 1, 2 or 5nm.
