The LP Flowcell – 50 cm Long Path Flow Cell for Optically Thin Samples

The LP Flowcell - The new Long Path Flowcell allows absorbance measurements through an optical path length of 50 cm (shorter paths are available), with an internal volume of only 102 microliters.   The LP Flowcell is ideally suited for very low level nutrient and trace element assays frequently required in such areas as  oceanographic research  applications.  The cell allows VIS/NIR (400 nm to 1,000 nm) absorbance measurements.  Eliminates or minimizes the need for pre-concentrations during online monitoring.   Wetting surfaces include Fused Silica, Viton®, and PEEK.    Contains no Teflon AF. Compatible with both FIA (FIAlab-2500, FIAlab-2600, FIAlab-2700) and SIA (MicroSIA, FIAlab-3200, FIAlab-3500) systems.
