Product News: EMD Millipore Introduces Spectroquant® Prove Family of System Spectrophotometers for Simplified, Durable and Secure Water Analysis

• Applications include waste water, drinking water, beverages and process water
• Offers the largest choice of water test kits with Live ID for accurate and fully traceable results
• Available in three models for routine applications, sensitive measurements and complex analyses

EMD Millipore, a leading science and technology company, has introduced Spectroquant® Prove, a new class of spectrophotometers for simplified, durable and secure analysis of waste water, drinking water, beverages and process water. Spectroquant® Prove is available in three models to meet a broad range of requirements and offers the largest choice of water test kits and methods including complete documentation.

• Spectroquant® Prove 100 performs Vis measurements and offers high quality and exceptional value for routine applications with Spectroquant® cell test kits.
• Spectroquant® Prove 300 allows UV/Vis analyses. Its long-lasting xenon lamp makes it ideal for more intensive use. Preprogrammed free applications, like bromate and brewery tests, make it the perfect choice for drinking water and beverage testing.
• Spectroquant® Prove 600 offers all the benefits of the Prove 300 system, delivers excellent resolution and sensitivity and is designed for complex analyses with high-end UV/Vis optics. The system offers a 1.8nm bandwidth and cuvettes up to 100mm.  Together with the most sensitive silicate and chloride test kits, the lowest measuring ranges in process water are reached.

Spectroquant® Prove's simple design requires only a minimal amount of space and its surfaces are durable against many chemicals used in the lab. Spectroquant® Prove also allows for easy data transfers with maximum flexibility and minimal effort.

The Spectroquant® Prove family of instruments and test kits increases the efficiency and reliability of water analysis through a variety of key features, including:

• Live ID, a new, data-rich identification system on all cell and reagent tests for transferring "live" data like expiry and lot number together with automatic, complementary calibration updates
• Cell Test Port offers direct insertion of round cell tests without opening any lids
• AutoSelector for Reagent Tests automatically detects the analysis method and provides all Live ID data
• Automatic cell size recognition for rectangular cells calculates results accordingly
• Smart Screen for simple, seamless menu navigation
• AQA prime for exceptionally secure and easy analytical quality assurance
• Long-life lamp, new reference beam technology minimizes the effort and costs of replacing lamps
• Removable cell compartment, the cell holder can be removed and cleaned if something is spilled
