The Biochrom WPA Lightwave combines ease of use with flexibility, and the novel optics require no lid or moving parts and use a Xenon source for high energy performance with longer lamp lifetime. Compact footprint saves valuable bench space. This instrument has a 2 year warranty and the Xenon lamp has a 3 year warranty. The Lightwave 3+ is a higher resolution 3nm bandwidth version.

Powerful and flexible

The instrument includes a large wide view display and in-built software providing flash scan, fixed wavelength measurements, kinetics and concentration with comprehensive graphics capability plus the ability to store up to 90 methods. On peak confirmation is also a feature of the flexible software. Concentration may be measured using either a factor, single point calibration, multi-standard curves or alternatively there is a multi-wavelength mode where equations using absorbance values may be used for ratio calculations. Samples may be measured in 10, 20 or 40mm pathlength cells (glass, quartz or disposable).

Flexible data export options

All instruments have a USB port to download result data to a flash drive. Alternatively, results may be printed to an optional integrated graphical printer for a permanent record or exported via a USB cable connection to a suitable PC running Print Via Computer (PVC) software for advanced reporting and data storage or the optional wireless Bluetooth® accessory.
