FS5 Spectrofluorometer

The FS5 Spectrofluorometer is designed to meet the highest measurement specifications in the research and analytical markets. To achieve optimal sensitivity, resolution, and acquisition speed, we select only the optimal performance photomultipliers in temperature stabilised housings, and utilise an optical design that includes plane, spherical, toroidal, ellipsoidal mirrors and optimised mirror coatings; the FS5 is truly unri…

Great product!

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Time resolved and steady state PL analysis for energy transfer between nanocrystals and dyes

The FS5 is relatively easy and straightforward to use. There are a lot of helpful how to videos online, and it is very easy to configure for different systems (temp, solid state, etc).

Low cost; great instrument!

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Fluorescence of dyes; binding of dyes and macrocycles

The instrument is easy to set up and use. The data analysis is made very convenient by the software that accompanies the instrument. There have been no performance issues in two years. The vendor also makes available excellent videos that are useful for students.

A very powerful and versatile fluorescence spectrophotometer

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Fluorescence spectroscopy and Life-time

A really reliable and powerful fluorescence spectrophotometer. Very versatile and modulable with totally tunable configuration which allows to measure from steady state fluorescence to life-time resolved decay, phosphorescent, photon counting, using different lasers, and xenon lamps. One of the main characteristics is the user friendly hardware and software and of course the user support. 100% recommended

Great value fluorescence spectrometer.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Fluorescence analyses

Great bang for the buck with the FS5! Ours is located in a shared instrument lab so is used for a variety of analyses, including liquids and solids. The software is fairly straightforward and capable. The US sales staff have been friendly and supportive but never pushy.
