Abstract:
Petrochemicals can be transparent or translucent, and are preferably measured using a transmittance instrument. Due to the high volume of samples and consistent need of testing, an automated and accurate way of measuring is most beneficial. The use of fiber optic technology within UV/VIS spectroscopy offers benefits compared to conventional, cuvette methods due to the elimination of inefficient, error-prone sample transfer, time-consuming cleaning and the cost of these consumables. The Fiber Probe Adapter fits seamlessly into your UV/VIS Spectrophotometer and connects to a wide range of available fiber probes. The flexibility of the system allows for seamless integration of automated sample changing solutions.
