Description
VLB140 Flow Cell is a high-capacity quartz flow cell designed for fluorescence spectroscopy and other optical measurement applications requiring stable flow, high sensitivity, and dual path length flexibility. With a 10/40 mm optical path length and an internal volume of 16 mL, it is well suited for medium-to-large volume flow systems and industrial or research environments.
This model uses bonded fabrication — assembled with high-quality optical adhesive to ensure clear light paths and stable structural integrity. Bonded flow cells offer cost-effective customization and are ideal for applications that don’t require extreme thermal or chemical resistance. The cell features OD 8 mm quartz tubing for reliable connection and easy integration with existing flow systems.
Bonded Fabrication Features
- Assembled with optical-grade adhesive for fast customization and lower cost.
- Good optical transmission with clear and stable flow channels.
- Recommended for most water-based and mild chemical solutions (not suitable for strong organic solvents or HF).
- Path length tolerance approximately ±0.06–0.08 mm.
- Economical solution for large-volume fluorescence and absorbance applications.
Typical Applications
- Fluorescence spectroscopy
- Flow-through optical detection systems
