Agilent Quartz Flow Cell Rectangular 5 mm 1.75 ml

The Agilent 5061-3386 Quartz Flow Cell is a high-quality optical component designed for UV-Visible spectroscopy applications that require continuous monitoring, such as automated dissolution testing or kinetic reaction analysis. Constructed from high-purity quartz, this cell provides exceptional optical transmission across the full UV-Vis spectrum, ensuring accurate measurements even for samples that absorb in the deep ultraviolet range where glass or plastic cells would fail.

A key specification of this specific model is its 5 mm optical path length. Unlike the standard 10 mm path length found in most cuvettes, this shorter path reduces the absorbance value by half, which is particularly useful when measuring higher concentration samples that might otherwise saturate the detector. The cell features a relatively large internal volume of 1.75 ml, designed to accommodate standard flow rates while minimizing backpressure. It is engineered with a rectangular body and threaded inlet/outlet ports to securely attach tubing, ensuring a leak-free path for the liquid sample to flow through the light path of the spectrophotometer (commonly the Agilent 8453 or 8454 systems).
