Ratio Beam Spectrophotometer U-5100 represents the successor to the U-1900 model released four years ago. Upgraded under the concept of ECO FRIENDLY & CLEAN, the new product also offers improved functionality. Thanks to the adoption of a long-life, energy-saving lamp, the U-5100 consumes 70% less energy than the previous model, resulting in significantly lower running costs. With an approximately 40% smaller footprint and 50% lighter body weight, the unit is compact and lightweight, and features improved operability so that even novice users can feel comfortable using it. In particular, the U-5100 is the first spectrophotometer that allows users to choose between Japanese and English instructions on the display via a simple button interface without requiring a firmware exchange. With automated 6-cell holder measurement enabling high throughput, this truly groundbreaking analyzer system achieves new levels of both environmental performance and basic functionality. In addition to these major performance enhancements, Hitachi High-Tech has reviewed the exterior design to make the device more appealing. The result is a new device that overturns the conventional image of scientific analysis equipment.
