 Table-top UV/Visible research irradiator with integrated dosimetry |
1. Overview
The Daavlin 4 Series Research Unit provides a concentrated ultraviolet/visible light source for laboratory research. It accommodates subjects from small cell cultures to medium-sized live animal models and uses an integrated dosimetry system to deliver consistent, accurate light doses by continuously monitoring lamp output.
2. Key Features
- Integrated dosimetry: Wavelength-specific UV sensors track output and automatically compensate for fluctuations to keep experimental conditions consistent.
- Spacious irradiation area: ~24" deep × 42" wide with ~8" usable height (61 × 107 × 20 cm).
- Portable, table-top form factor: Lightweight and easily deployed within a lab; locate in a space with ventilation.
- Electrically universal: Works on 110–240 V, 50/60 Hz and draws <10 A.
- Lamp flexibility: Single-wavelength units or combination builds (any two lamp types) for solar-simulation style experiments.
