Product description

High-performance UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer measuring 175-3300 nm with extended photometric range and variable slit widths.

Varian Cary 5000 is a high-performance UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer designed for precise optical measurements across a broad wavelength range of 175 to 3300 nm. This instrument is essential for researchers requiring accurate analysis of materials' optical properties, including transmittance, absorbance, and reflectance.

Key features include:

  • Extended photometric range: Measures beyond 8.0 absorbance units, accommodating highly absorbing samples.
  • PbSmart NIR detector: Enhances sensitivity and reduces stray light in the near-infrared region.
  • Variable slit widths: Adjustable down to 0.01 nm for optimal data resolution.
  • Large sample compartment: Accommodates diverse sample sizes and integrates various accessories.
  • LockDown mechanism: Facilitates quick and reproducible accessory changes.
  • Cary WinUV software: Modular interface offering powerful analysis and enhanced data management.

This spectrophotometer is widely applied in:

  • Materials science: Characterising optical properties of advanced materials and nanomaterials.
  • Biotechnology: Analysing biological specimens such as DNA, proteins, and enzymes.
  • Environmental science: Detecting heavy metals in water samples.
  • Semiconductor research: Evaluating photonic and optoelectronic devices.

Commonly utilised in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and industrial R&D facilities, the Cary 5000 has been a reliable tool since its introduction and continues to be relevant in contemporary research settings.

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.
