Product concepts underlying Hitachi's U-5100 UV-Visible Spectrophotometer is ECO-FRIENDLY & CLEAN. The Model U-5100 delivers a compact, lightweight package with remarkable power savings and a long life for its light source. The U-5100 incorporates every aspect of the technological features of Hitachi's reliability-proven spectrophotometers while achieving our ultimate goal to create a spectrophotometer that is ECO-FRIENDLY & CLEAN and provides SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE. Features ECOLOGY:Incorporates a Xenon flash lamp, which is an environmentally friendly, low-power consumption, long-life light source. Adoption of a Xenon flash lamp By adopting a long-lasting Xenon flash lamp, the product delivers a long life for its lamp, eliminating the need for periodic lamp replacement that was necessary in previous model*1. Energy saving design Through control of the Xenon flash lamp that emits pulses only during measurement, power consumption is reduced by 70% compared with previous model. Reduced measurement time The automatic switching of 6 cells by using an automatic 6-cell turret and a high-speed scanning (12,000 nm/min) deliver a substantial reduction in measurement time (approximately 60% reduction). The examples shown in the figure compare*2 the amount of time required to measure 100 samples (5 wavelengths × 20 samples) with a previous model*1, based on biological analyses and quality control on food products. DESIGN:User-friendly, compact, lightweight design Compact, lightweight design The U-5100 features a 38% smaller footprint, and a 52% reduction in weight compared with a previous model*1, which makes it easier to secure an adequate installation space.
