Biochrom Libra Spectrophotometers and Colorimeters
Biochrom Libra S35 UV/Visible Spectrophotometer

Features
- Split beam (RBC) UV/Vis spectrophotometer covering 190-1100nm
- 1nm bandwidth for full EP compliance
- Press To Read (PTR) high energy Deuterium and Tungsten sources reduces running costs
- Rapid scan facility
- 8 position sample changer as standard and a wide range of accessories
- Onboard GLP validation, optional 21 CFR part 11 compliant software and IQ/OQ documentation
Description
The Biochrom Libra S35 is
a high specification stand alone instrument with a 1nm
bandwidth intended for the busy multi-user laboratory in
Pharmaceutical, Analytical and Research laboratories. With
press to read lamp technology, lamp life is only consumed during
the measurement cycle; therefore long term running costs are
minimal. The S35 can be either download results to Excel via
spreadsheet interface software (optional) or be fully PC
controlled using the optional Acquire Software.
Designed for regulatory compliance
This
instrument is ideal for laboratories seeking high performance,EP,
GLP, IQ/OQ certification test plans and output to LIMS.
The on-board self test diagnostics for
instrument performance validation may be used in
conjunction with the Qualification and Performance
Verification Logbook (provided with the instruments) so that
an ongoing record of instrument performance over time may
be kept for GLP purposes. For 21CFR part 11
compliance, Acquire CFR software is required
(optional).
