Colourwave Colorimeter Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Colourwave Colorimeter (Product Code: SLE/ME/51) is a filter colorimeter used to measure the absorbance and transmission of coloured solutions for concentration and reaction-rate studies in school, college and teaching laboratories. Eight gelatin filters cover 440–680 nm, it reads -0.3 to 1.99 A or 0 to 199 %T, and it accepts 10 mm cuvettes or 16 mm tubes, with analogue and RS232 outputs for recording results. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Colourwave Colorimeter Used For?

A colorimeter turns the depth of a solution's colour into a number, so students can explore the Beer–Lambert relationship, build a calibration curve from standards and read off the concentration of an unknown. Typical practicals include copper(II) sulfate or food-dye concentration, iodine clock and other rate studies, starch digestion by amylase, and estimating cell density in cultures. Choosing the filter whose colour is complementary to the solution gives the largest change in absorbance.

Because the holder is fixed and has a drain hole, a spill runs out instead of pooling around the optics; keep cuvettes clean and handle them by their non-optical sides. The analogue output on 4 mm sockets can feed a chart recorder or data-logging interface, while the RS232 port sends readings to a computer for longer kinetic runs. It is a practical entry point to analytical lab instruments in India for schools and colleges.

What to Specify When Ordering

• The sample vessels you plan to use: 10 mm path length cuvettes or 16 mm diameter tubes.
• Your mains supply, since the unit runs at 240 V through the transformer supplied.
• How results will be recorded: the analogue 4 mm sockets, the RS232 output, or both.
• The number of units, for example one per practical group or one per laboratory.

Frequently Asked Questions

What wavelengths does the Colourwave Colorimeter cover?
The Colourwave Colorimeter uses eight gelatin filters spanning 440 to 680 nm, with a 40 nm bandwidth. Selecting the filter complementary to the solution's colour gives the greatest absorbance change for concentration and reaction-rate measurements.

What is the measuring range of the Colourwave Colorimeter?
The Colourwave Colorimeter reads absorbance from -0.3 A to 1.99 A and transmission from 0 to 199 %T, with repeatability of ±0.02 A at 1 A. This suits calibration curves and routine concentration work in teaching laboratories.

What cuvettes or tubes fit the Colourwave Colorimeter?
The Colourwave Colorimeter accepts 10 mm path length cuvettes or 16 mm diameter tubes in its fixed cuvette holder. The holder has a drain hole, so any spilled solution drains away instead of collecting around the optics.

Can the Colourwave Colorimeter connect to a computer or data logger?
Yes. The Colourwave Colorimeter has an analogue output of 0–2 V for 0–2 A and 0–1.99 V for 0–199 %T through two 4 mm sockets, plus a digital RS232 output for sending readings to a computer.

What power supply does the Colourwave Colorimeter use?
The Colourwave Colorimeter runs from a 240 V supply through the transformer supplied with it. If your laboratory uses a different mains voltage, mention it in your enquiry through the contact page so we can confirm suitability before quoting.

Who supplies the Colourwave Colorimeter?
The Colourwave Colorimeter is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges and dealers in India and international markets can request quotations for single units or for several laboratories.

Is a calibration certificate available for the Colourwave Colorimeter?
Calibration-certificate availability for the Colourwave Colorimeter should be discussed with us before you order. Mention the document you need when you enquire, and we will confirm what can accompany the instrument with your quotation.
