Shimadzu UV-3700

The Shimadzu UV-3700 is a used double-monochromator UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer designed for laboratories requiring precise spectral measurements across a wide wavelength range. Featuring three detectors, this instrument delivers accurate readings from the ultraviolet through the near infrared, making it a versatile tool for research and quality control environments. Its optical design minimizes stray light, which helps produce clean, dependable data even in challenging sample conditions. This unit supports a broad range of applications including materials characterization, pharmaceutical analysis, and chemical research where consistent absorbance and transmittance data are essential. The UV-3700 pairs with Shimadzu's UVProbe software, enabling straightforward method creation, spectral comparison, and report generation for both routine testing and more advanced investigative work. Its robust build and proven optical bench design have made it a mainstay in analytical labs that need long-term reliability. As a pre-owned instrument, this UV-3700 offers laboratories a practical way to access high-performance UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy without the investment required for new equipment. It is a good fit for university labs, contract testing facilities, and industrial quality assurance departments looking to expand or refresh their spectrophotometer fleet.
