CD 250/Cary5000

The CD 250/5000 for the Cary 4000, 5000, 6000i and 7000 UV/Vis/NIR Spectrophotometers provides temperature control, dry gas purging and magnetic stirring as needed to a wide range of cuvettes or other samples. This versatility is accomplished using a cuvette carriage which firmly mounts within the temperature controlled tower of the CD 250/Cary5000. Cuvette carriages are available for several kinds of cuvettes, including those that are square, rectangular or cylindrical, as well as other samples such as small plates or films. Other carriages can be inexpensively designed as needed. Removable strain-free fused silica windows are placed on each side of the CD 250 to minimize convection losses. Depending on the carriage design, an additional optical port may be available at 90 degrees to the excitation. Use the CD 250/Cary5000 for work in the biological range of 0 °C to 105 °C. With the correct carriage design and sample, extend temperature ranges to below -25 °C or up to 150 °C. The mounted t2 Sport/Cary5000 replaces the sample cuvette holder normally provided with the spectrophotometer. Two options are available for bringing utilities (tubes and wires) out of the sample compartment. For laboratories that have the Agilent extended “nose” assembly, we can provide a simple access plate that mounts below the nose. Otherwise, you may purchase our PANEL/5000 option, which permits connections of the front of the spectrophotometer. Operate the TC 1/Single Temperature Controller using the menu button or control via program T-App. Use an ADL program for temperature ramping with WinUV ADL Shell software.
