The NS-560 (SAC Series) Signal Averaging Computer provides the experimenter or technician with the most versatility, accuracy and efficiency at the lowest possible cost. It is a totaling type aver ager with a fixed program to pro vide a "non-rising" baseline. The unit has several optional features which extend its use in many medical applications as well as nuclear magnetic resonant meas urements. If you have an experiment which has noise as a problem, or just di gitizing analog signals, the NS-560 may solve your problem. For full details, write today.

four place digital readout, three modes: linear Τ a n d A, plus concentration The new Spectronic® 1 00 is one of the most versatile, yet accurate and reliable Spec trophotometers available in the medium price range. It provides the customer with maximum operational ease and instrument appeal as well as unprecedented measure ment flexibility and versatility. It permits the analyst to read results in transmittance, absorbance, or absolute concentration units directly from single, multiple or microflow thru cells, using a digital Nixie tube display. BCD output is available from a 40 pin connector at the rear of the instru
ment enabling the user to quickly and con veniently use any one of a variety of re cording or printout devices — analog or digital. Wavelength range extends from 325nm925nm, with a 8.0nm bandpass. Readout to four digits: in transmittance from 000.0100.0%, in absorbance from 0.000 to 2.000A and in concentration from 00002000 with selectable positioning of the decimal point. Reliability of the Spectronic 1 00 is dem onstrated in the short term stability of bet ter than 0.001 A, and long term stability of less than 0.001 A/hr., coupled with zero drift of less than 0 . 2 % per day. For more details, write for Catalog 33-6031. If you'd like to see one in your lab, we'll gladly arrange a demon stration.

3 2 5 - 9 2 5 n m range, 8nm bandpass high stability and reliability The wide wavelength range of the new Spectronic® 70 is continuous. Photo tubes and filters are automatically in terchanged—no manual changing is required. Readout is in absorbance units and linear transmittance—on a large, mirror-scale meter. A fast optical system of an entirely new design com bines fine accuracy and mechanical stability with easy operation. The all solid state electronics with the latest in integrated circuit technology assure high stability and reliability, and ex ceptional precision.
Operation is extremely simple: set wavelength, adjust for 1 0 0 % Τ or 0.0A with reference, introduce sample and read. An accessory outlet allows instant attachment of a variety of readouts including strip-chart record ers, digital readouts, the B&L Con centration Computer for direct con centration readings, and a digital voltmeter for Nixie tube display. Unprecedented sampling flexibility permits use of cylindrical cells up to 50mm path length and rectangular cells—either semi-micro, short path or constant temperature cells. For more details, write for Catalog 3 3 - 6 0 3 0 . If you'd like to see one in your lab, we'll gladly arrange a dem onstration.
