qX3/Eclipse
Air-cooled, Peltier-based temperature-controlled cuvette holder for the Agilent Cary Eclipse Fluorescence SpectrophotometerThe qX3/Eclipse is a temperature-controlled cuvette holder with three optical ports for use in the Cary Eclipse Fluorescence Spectrophotometer. Remove the existing cell holder and lock qX3/Eclipse down in its place, using the lever mounted in the front. Due to it flash lamp source, the Eclipse has “room light immunity,” permitting the utilities, wires and tubes, to exit the sample compartment without interfering with a measurement. Use the qX3/Eclipse 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 qX3 from 0 °C down to -35 °C. Purchase the extended temperature option to extend operation above 110 °C to 150 °C. Control the qX3/Eclipse, 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.
