Analytikjena UVP Viewing Cabinet

• Visualisation of DNA/RNA gels in molecular biology.
• Inspection of thin-layer chromatography (TLC) plates in chemistry.
• Detection of fluorescently labelled samples in research and diagnostics.
• Quality control for materials exhibiting fluorescence.
• Forensic analysis for latent print detection and document examination.

Typical viewing area

For this class of equipment, interior dimensions commonly range from 200x200x150mm to 300x300x200mm (LxWxH).

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate from a standard mains supply, commonly 230V, 50Hz in the UK, often requiring a separate power source for the UV lamp.

UV wavelength compatibility

Often designed to accommodate lamps emitting shortwave (254nm), midwave (302nm), or longwave (365nm) UV, depending on the specific lamp fitted.

Construction materials

Typically feature a metal base with a durable plastic top, and a soft rubber viewport with a UV-blocking filter.

Footprint

Compact designs are common, with exterior dimensions typically around 250x270x300mm (LxWxH) for benchtop use.

Filter type

Commonly includes a contrast control filter that absorbs UV energy for eye protection and enhanced sample visibility.
