What does a SpectroVis Plus measure?
SpectroVis® Plus Spectrophotometer for Vernier Chemistry Investigations for Use with AP Chemistry. SpectroVis Plus is a portable and affordable visible light spectrophotometer with fluorescence capabilities. Measure wavelengths from 380 nm to 950 nm and analyze results in full color.
What is a vernier SpectroVis?
Description. The SpectroVis Plus educational spectrophotometer combines fluorescence capabilities with a linear CCD array detector. Two different excitation wavelengths enable analysis of compounds such as fluorescein, chlorophyll, or GFP. Measure wavelengths from 380 to 950nm and analyze results in full color.
How does the SpectroVis spectrophotometer work?
The Go Direct SpectroVis Plus Spectrophotometer employs an LED and tungsten bulb to transmit light through a high-quality diffraction grating. The diffracted light is sorted and collected by the linear CCD array detector.
How do you use a vernier go direct SpectroVis plus?
Insert the Vernier Optical Fiber into the SpectroVis Plus. Use a USB cable to connect the Spectrophotometer to your LabQuest. Choose New from the File menu. On the Meter screen, tap Change Units ► USB: Spectrophotometer ► Intensity from the Sensors menu.
How do you calibrate a Vernier Spectrometer?
Calibrate (Not Required if Measuring Intensity or Fluorescence) To calibrate the SpectroVis Plus, choose Calibrate ► Spectrophotometer from the Experiment menu. Note: For best results, allow the Spectrophotometer to warm up for a minimum of five minutes.
How do you calibrate a SpectroVis?
To calibrate Go Direct SpectroVis Plus, choose Calibrate ► Spectrophotometer from the Experiment menu. Note: For best results, allow the Spectrophotometer to warm up for a minimum of five minutes. Fill a cuvette about 3/4 full with distilled water (or the solvent being used in the experiment) to serve as the blank.
