The Shimadzu SPD-10AVP UV-VIS Detector is a compact and reliable ultraviolet-visible detector designed for liquid chromatography and HPLC applications. It is part of Shimadzu's VP series of HPLC detectors and is designed to provide wavelength-selective absorbance detection for chromatographic analysis.

This refurbished Shimadzu SPD-10AVP UV-VIS Detector is suitable for laboratories requiring dependable UV detection for routine HPLC analysis, pharmaceutical research, chemical analysis, biotechnology and academic research. The instrument provides selectable wavelength operation and includes dedicated controls for zero adjustment, running, wavelength programming, polarity and scanning functions.

The SPD-10AVP supports dual-wavelength measurements and wavelength scanning, making it suitable for chromatographic methods where detection at different wavelengths is required. The detector uses a 10 mm optical path length flow cell with an approximately 8 µL cell volume and supports pressure-tolerant HPLC operation.

Applications

The Shimadzu SPD-10AVP UV-VIS Detector is widely used in HPLC laboratories, pharmaceutical research facilities, chemical analysis laboratories, biotechnology laboratories, universities and quality-control environments.

It is suitable for quantitative and qualitative HPLC analysis, pharmaceutical compound analysis, impurity detection, chemical separation studies, method development and routine chromatographic workflows. Its dual-wavelength and wavelength-scanning functions provide additional flexibility for identifying and monitoring UV-absorbing compounds during liquid chromatography analysis.
