qX2/Cary300

The qX2/Cary300 is a temperature-controlled cuvette holder with two optical ports for use in your Cary 100 or Cary 300 Spectrophotometer. The qX2/Cary300 replaces the sample tray of the Cary 300. It is mounted on a base plate and has utilities brought to the front panel for convenient access. The temperature-controlled cell holder is placed in the sample position and a second cell holder without temperature control is placed in the reference position. Use the qX2/Cary300 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. Purchase the low temperature option, consisting of a windowed vest and capability for liquid cooling, and operate the qX2/Cary300 from 0 °C down to -35 °C. Purchase the extended temperature option to extend operation above 110 °C to 150 °C. Control the qX2/Cary300, using the TC 1B Temperature Controller included in the purchase price. For additional control and temperature monitoring, use Quantum Northwest’s computer control software, T-App, available for purchase. Alternatively, use an ADL program for temperature ramping with WinUV ADL Shell software.
