Overview

The FL 8500 Fluorescence Spectrophotometer uses a continuous wave excitation source for high sensitivity measurements at scan speeds up to 60,000 nm/min.

Features and Benefits include:

  • High resolution (1.0 nm)
  • High scan speed up to 60,000 nm/min
  • Sensitivity, high performance R928 PMT detector combined with PerkinElmer optics ensures optimum performance across the spectrum.
  • Broad excitation and emission wavelength range up to 900 nm
  • Superior wavelength accuracy and reproducibility for right first time results
  • 4 collection modes enable you to do more on one instrument: Fluorescence, Phosphorescence, Chemi/Bio-Luminescence, and Time Resolved Phosphorescence measurements
  • Easy to use, your laboratory can generate accurate and reliable fluorescence data, regardless of the operator’s experience level through intuitive Spectrum FL software designed around your workflow.
  • Flexible – 26 and plug-n-play auto-recognized accessories enable you to analyze a wide array of sample types and conditions.
  • Effortless, with numerous preset methods aid you to move between variety of method types.
  • Ideally suited material characterization; industrial tracing and manufacturing R&D; agricultural and environmental analysis; and analysis of LEDs, solar cells, and organic electroluminescent materials.
  • Up to 2,000 hour long lived Xenon Arc (150 W) light source; easily replace the pre-aligned bulb yourself without the assistance of service engineer saving time and money
  • Peace of mind with Radian, PerkinElmer’s proprietary instrument remote monitoring system
  • Compact footprint to free up valuable bench space (occupies only 66 cm (26 inches) of bench space)

Data Integrity – Spectrum FL Enhanced Security (ES) Software for Fluorescence Spectroscopy

The FDA defines data integrity as “completeness, consistency, and accuracy of data. Complete, consistent, and accurate data should be attributable, legible, contemporaneously recorded, original or a true copy, and accurate (ALCOA)”. ALCOA itself has evolved to ALCOA Plus, which incorporates two of t ...
