The Cyl 100 is a Peltier-based, temperature-controlled holder designed for 100 mm pathlength cylindrical cuvettes. The cuvette sits securely in a temperature-controlled cradle, with a screw-down cover ensuring uniform thermal contact for precise and stable temperature regulation.

Operating from -15 °C to 110 °C, the Cyl 100 delivers exceptional thermal stability using thermoelectric temperature control and a water-cooled heat exchanger. Equipped with two magnetic stir bars, the Cyl 100 provides precise control over both temperature and stirring speed, ensuring consistent, uniform conditions for long-path absorbance measurements. Like all Quantum Northwest sample holders, the Cyl 100 delivers unsurpassed temperature stability, maintaining set temperatures within a fraction of a degree.

Control is straightforward with the TC-1 Temperature Controller, included with purchase. Users can set temperatures, stirring speeds, and ramp rates via the TC-1’s front panel or through T-App, Quantum Northwest’s optional control software. T-App offers advanced features, including real-time plotting, scripting, and direct sample temperature measurement when paired with the optional Probe/10K sensor. Even without T-App, the TC-1 display provides a direct readout of sample temperature when using the Probe/10K.

The Cyl 100 integrates with a wide range of spectrophotometers. The standard model mounts easily to both imperial and metric optical breadboards, with additional models available for specific instruments. If an existing model doesn’t fully meet your requirements, contact us to explore customization options.

With precise temperature control, uniform thermal contact, and integrated stirring, the Cyl 100 is an ideal solution for long-path absorbance studies requiring stable conditions. Its robust design and seamless integration with spectrophotometers make it a powerful tool for demanding analytical applications.

*The holder's temperature performance depends on the operating environment and setup conditions, which must support proper heat dissipation and condensation reduction. While the listed temperatures are consistently achieved during testing, they are not guaranteed in all environments or setups. Meeting the ideal setup conditions outlined in the product's manual is necessary to achieve specific temperature stages.

**The extended range applies only when all corresponding High or Low customization options are implemented. The higher limit is extended by the High Limit package option, and the lower limit is extended by the Low Limit package option.
