Product description

UV/Vis dual-wavelength detector (190-700 nm) for HPLC with high sensitivity and low noise.

The Waters 2487 Dual Wavelength Absorbance Detector is a high-performance UV/Vis detector designed for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) applications. This instrument offers advanced programmability and dual-wavelength capability, enabling precise detection and quantification of both major and minor components in complex samples.

Key features include:

  • Dual-wavelength detection: Simultaneously monitors absorbance at two user-selectable wavelengths, providing comprehensive analyte information per run.
  • Wide wavelength range: Operates from 190 to 700 nm, accommodating diverse analytical requirements.
  • Exceptional sensitivity: Features a measurement range from 0.0001 to 4.0000 AU, ensuring accurate detection of low-level impurities.
  • Superior signal-to-noise performance: Delivers low baseline noise (<0.35 x 10⁻⁵ AU) for enhanced data quality.
  • Reduced optical bandwidth: Provides improved resolution and peak separation.
  • Exceptional linearity: Maintains linearity up to 2.5 AU, facilitating accurate quantification across a broad concentration range.

This detector is widely utilised in various scientific fields, including biotechnology, pharmaceutical research, clinical diagnostics, and environmental analysis. It is commonly employed in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and pharmaceutical companies.

Introduced in the early 2000s, the Waters 2487 remains relevant in laboratories requiring reliable and precise UV/Vis detection for HPLC analyses.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
