The Aquarius spectrophotometer offers very high performance with a variable optical bandwidth of 0.5, 1, 2 and 4nm for high resolution applications. The wavelength range is 190-1000nm. 
 
The spectrophotometer performance and powerful software are only normally available with much more expensive instruments. 
 
Double Beam Optical System 
The fully symmetrical double beam system of the Aquarius instruments provides the highest accuracy of measurement coupled with very high stability with time. 
 
Both sample and reference beams are provided with the same space facilities, thus catering for the widest possible range of experimental requirements and not limited to just a simple cell in the reference beam. 
 
Scans Viewed By Scrolling 
By scrolling information across the display screen, the effective width of the screen is a massive 430mm. Long scans, plots and other data may be viewed in much more detail, than with other instruments. 
 
Powerful Integral Control 
Rapid operation with ease of use is provided by the powerful software built into the computing system of the Aquarius instruments. The standard software is remarkably comprehensive but may be expanded, at any time, by E-SEF to release additional software modules when required. 
 
Rapid Menu Operation 
The large backlit high resolution LCD screen displays menus for all applications, with clear prompts for all entries and procedures. Scans, plots, curves and data are all displayed on the screen and may be reprocessed or manipulated before storing or producing a printout. 
Secure Integral Memory 
 
Generous built in secure memory allows scans, curves, plots, Kinetic curves, as well as methods to be stored tamper proof protected by personal security codes. 
 
Any scans, plots or data may be recalled from memory, with assured integrity, for reprocessing, manipulation and printing as required. 
 
Dynamic Scan Recall 
The Aquarius instruments are provided with the ability to store the last 20 or more scans or plots without the need to carry out a scan storage procedure. The scans or plots are automatically stored as they are made and may be recalled from a list on the display.
