Nanbei Instruments is a global supplier of laboratory analytical instruments, including a wide range of high-precision visible spectrophotometers. Proper maintenance ensures accurate results, longer instrument life, and consistent performance in any lab environment.
A visible spectrophotometer, also known as a single-beam spectrometer, is a scientific device used to analyze how samples absorb light within the visible wavelength range. It is commonly used for both qualitative and quantitative analysis due to its simplicity, speed, and reliability.
Spectrophotometry plays an important role in:
Clinical diagnostics
Food and beverage quality control
Environmental analysis
Pharmaceutical and chemical research
The lamp inside your spectrophotometer has a limited lifespan.
Avoid turning on the lamp unless needed.
If you shut down the device, let the lamp cool before restarting.
Always preheat the lamp for about 15 minutes before measurements.
Excessive humidity and temperature changes can cause mechanical wear or optical instability.
Keep your spectrophotometer in a dry, temperature-controlled room.
Regularly calibrate the instrument using appropriate standards.
Dust and residues can interfere with accurate light transmission.
Gently clean the outer shell and optical compartment with lab-grade wipes.
Keep the instrument covered when not in use.
Hold cuvettes only by the frosted sides—never touch the optical windows.
Rinse with distilled water after use and air-dry.
Never wipe the clear surface with paper towels, as it may scratch the glass.
