Hitachi U-5100 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer with 6-Channel Auto Changer

The Hitachi U-5100 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer features a low power consumption, environmentally considerate design integrating a long-life xenon flash lamp as its light source, ensuring stable spectral output for precise molecular diagnostics and bioprocess analysis. Despite its compact and lightweight form factor (355×425×235 mm, 13 kg), it delivers high photometric accuracy of ±0.003 Abs across 0–0.5 Abs absorbance range and ±0.005 Abs between 0.5–1.0 Abs, making it suitable for highly sensitive quantitative analyses in biotechnology and chemical research.

Equipped with a 6-channel automatic sample changer, this benchtop spectrophotometer facilitates efficient, automated measurement workflows essential for molecular cloning workflows and synthetic biology applications. The instrument supports multi-wavelength analysis and UV-Vis absorption measurement, critical in biomedical engineering, molecular diagnostics, and bioprocessing.

The device operates on a multi-voltage power supply (100 to 240 V, 50/60 Hz) and draws 60 VA power, compatible with global laboratory settings. As a used instrument, it is sold as-is; performance and functions might differ from new conditions but is supported by a warranty covering repairs or replacement within 10 days post-delivery.

Ideal for researchers requiring reliable UV-Vis spectrometry with automated sample handling, this model is widely adopted in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and instrumental in fluorescence analysis and live-cell imaging preparatory studies.
