- Digital controller and display
- Sold as-is
Features
Equipped with a multichannel system, the SpectraMax 190 measures 96-well microplates using separate sample and reference beams for each well. This feature eliminates errors caused by optical fiber light output variations, ensuring consistent and reproducible results.
The monochromator-based wavelength selection covers a range from 190 nm to 850 nm, allowing flexibility without the need for purchasing or replacing filters. This design simplifies operation while enhancing efficiency for researchers conducting diverse absorbance-based assays.
Testing
This SpectraMax 190 is used and reconditioned. Our technicians will power this up and cycle through the menus to ensure that it is in general functional condition but are unable to test it further.
