Standard Module

The Absorbance Photometer Module is a open standaed Photometer-module-concept for integration into OEM applications, e.g. Cuvette Readers.

It can be adapted to fit Cuvettes of any size. The Module is controlled via TTL. RS 232 serial or USB interface, with a minimum of commands. It is also possible to adapt the communication on hard- and software for any host processor.

Measurement procedures can easily be programmed through scripts.

For service or testing, simply use any terminal program available.

Reading Type: Direct reading or Flow Cell
Measurement Cell: Black anodized aluminum
Cuvette Sizes: Measuring cell be adapted to any cuvette size
