High-performance Hitachi U-5100 UV-Vis spectrophotometer with xenon flash lamp and 6-channel auto changer for molecular diagnostics.
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.
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.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
