- Multiple detector ports in one fully integrated instrument, measure up to 1650 nm and fluorescence lifetimes down to 25 ps
- >10,000:1 Water Raman SNR, high sensitivity allows for detection of very weak fluorescence signals
- Three detectors as standard, reference detector to correct for light source fluctuations, transmission detector for absorbance, single-photon counting (SPC) detector for ultimate sensitivity
- Plug & Play sample modules, automatic sample module recognition and initialisation saves the user time and effort. Wide range of modules available for varied sample analysis
- NEW MicroPL Upgrade allows spectral and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements of samples in the microscopic scale
- Live video demonstration – contact us to arrange an online demonstration. We can accept your samples and talk you through the process as we run test measurements.
FS5 – Spectrofluorometer
The FS5 is a fully integrated, purpose-built spectrofluorometer designed to meet the highest measurement specifications in the research and analytical markets. To achieve optimal sensitivity, resolution, and acquisition speed, we select only the optimal performance photomultipliers in temperature stabilised housings, and utilise an optical design that includes plane, spherical, toroidal, ellipsoidal mirrors and optimised mirror coatings; the FS5 is truly unrivalled in its spectral performance and sensitivity.
