The Agilent 8453 spectrophotometer is the core of powerful and productive systems for routine and occasional users that are easy to use and integrate seamlessly into the modern laboratory. The spectrophotometer comes equipped with all the diode-array advantages – fast scanning, excellent sensitivity, virtually absolute wavelength reproducibility, exceptional ruggedness and reliability, minimum maintenance and open sample area, and significant improvements in optical performance. Better than two nanometer resolution, wavelength range of 190 to 1100 nm and less than 0.03 % stray light is standard.
