Brr 20/Hitachi
Peltier-controlled cuvette holder with extended low temperature response for Hitachi SpectrophotometersThe Brr 20/Hitachi is a temperature-controlled cuvette holder for the range of +110 °C down to -55 °C. It is designed for use in Hitachi spectrophotometers. The Brr 20/Hitachi replaces the sample tray (base and front panel) of the spectrophotometer, with utilities brought conveniently to the front panel. The temperature-controlled cell holder is placed in the sample position and a second cell holder for the range of +110 °C down to -55 °C, and a second cell holder without temperature control is placed in the reference position. Use the Brr 20/Hitachi to set and maintain precise sample temperatures and stir at a steady reproducible rate, while bathing the cuvette in a controlled gaseous environment. This product is provided with a windowed vest to enhance performance at low temperatures and minimize condensation that may form on the windows. Circulating water is used to remove heat from the Peltier heat exchanger. Control the Brr 20/Hitachi, using the TC 1B Temperature Controller included in the purchase price. For additional control and temperature monitoring, use Quantum Northwest’s computer control software, T-App, available for purchase.
