Product description

Precision Helios Gamma UV-Vis spectrophotometer with tungsten lamp, ideal for molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing.

The Thermo Electron Helios Gamma UV-Vis Spectrophotometer is a benchtop analytical instrument designed for precise ultraviolet-visible light absorption measurements. This model features a tungsten lamp light source, crucial for accurate molecular spectroscopy and absorbance quantification in biotechnology applications such as molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing.

  • Light Source: Tungsten lamp with 1,438 operational hours, providing stable illumination
  • Instrument Usage: Total operational time of 147 hours, indicating limited overall wear
  • Operational Status: Successfully initialized; however, a warning ("E1053 Tungsten Lamp Energy Low") suggests the lamp may need replacement for optimal performance
  • Applications: Widely adopted in synthetic biology research, gene editing workflows, and biopharmaceutical production where precise absorbance readings are critical
  • Research Fields: Essential for clinical diagnostics, biochemical analysis, and fluorescence analysis in biomedical engineering
  • Benefits: Offers reliable spectral data for live-cell imaging studies and molecular cloning projects requiring precise wavelength scanning

This UV-Vis spectrophotometer supports detailed spectral analysis in research environments focusing on molecular biology and biotechnological innovation. It is a critical tool for laboratories conducting quantitative absorbance measurements necessary for biotechnology-based research and development.

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?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that 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.
