Shimadzu UV-2550

This used Shimadzu UV-2550 is a double-beam UV-Vis spectrophotometer built for high sensitivity and precise photometric accuracy across a wide dynamic range. Its optical system uses a fixed 1200 line/mm grating and photomultiplier tube detector, giving it low stray light and strong resolution for demanding sample types, and it operates with Shimadzu UVProbe software for spectral scanning, quantitation, and kinetic analysis. The instrument supports a variety of optional accessories, including integrating sphere attachments, which make it suitable for measuring turbid or highly scattering samples in addition to standard liquid analysis. Laboratories rely on this model for applications ranging from pharmaceutical assay work to materials characterization, food and beverage testing, and academic research, where consistent, well-documented UV-Vis data is essential. Its large sample compartment and accessory compatibility have made it popular in labs that need flexibility beyond simple cuvette measurements. The unit listed here is used and has been inspected for lamp output, baseline drift, and wavelength calibration prior to sale. It offers strong value for laboratories seeking dependable UV-Vis performance from an established, well-supported Shimadzu platform.
