qX3/Duetta

Air-cooled, Peltier-controlled cuvette holder for Horiba's Duetta Fluorescence and Absorbance Spectrometer
Product Overview

The qX3/Duetta is a temperature-controlled cuvette holder for the Duetta™ Fluorescence and Absorbance Spectrometer from Horiba. The qX3/Duetta has three optical ports. Its operation is fully integrated into the software of the Duetta product. Use the qX3/Duetta to set and maintain precise sample temperatures and stir at a steady reproducible rate, while bathing the cuvette in a controlled gaseous environment. Although dependent on rapid, precise Peltier technology, no circulating water is required for normal operation from 0 °C to 110 °C. Control the qX3/Duetta, using the TC 1B Temperature Controller included in the purchase price. This product should be purchased from Horiba.
