Description
VAOFW5 – 3.5 mL Standard Absorption Cuvette (Fused, 10 mm Lightpath, 2 Windows)
The VAOFW5 is a fused quartz absorption cuvette with a 10 mm optical path length and a 3.5 mL sample volume. Featuring 2 clear optical windows and a flat base, this cuvette is ideal for standard UV/VIS absorbance measurements. The Fused Fabrication process ensures excellent optical performance, chemical resistance, and temperature stability for a wide range of laboratory applications.
Key Features
- 10 mm optical path length: standard for most UV/VIS spectrophotometers.
- 2 optical windows: designed for accurate absorbance measurements with minimal signal distortion.
- PTFE lid: helps minimize evaporation and contamination (not airtight or anaerobic grade).
- Fused fabrication: excellent optical quality and robust temperature and chemical resistance.
- Wavelength range: 190–2500 nm (UV/VIS).
- Thermal resistance: up to 600 °C (1112 °F).
- Chemical compatibility: resistant to most acids and bases; not suitable for HF, toluene, acetone, or aggressive organic solvents.
- Pathlength tolerance: ±0.06 – 0.08 mm.
- Secure packaging: protected with foam and bubble wrap; drop-tested from 1 meter before shipment.
Typical Applications
- UV/VIS absorption spectroscopy
- Quantitative chemical and biological assays
- Environmental and industrial analysis
- General laboratory testing
