The Colorimeter is designed to measure the amount of light penetrating a solution. Transmittance (%T) is the amount of light being received, referenced to light sent. Absorbance (Abs) is the amount of light absorbed by the solution.
A white LED is used as the source of illumination, thus it does not heat the solution being studied, giving better control when rate reactions are being studied.
The Colorimeter & Turbidity sensor measures the amount of light penetrating a solution so can be used for investigations which result in a change of colour or opacity.
The Colorimeter & Turbidity sensor comes complete with a pack of 3 adaptors for attaching Cuvettes, Test & Boiling Tubes.
5 Colorimeter wavelengths | 470 nm, 520 nm, 573 nm, 625 nm, 660 nm, 850 nm IR for Turbidity |
