Hanna Instrument Nutrient Analysis Photometer – HI83325

The HI83325 is a small multiparameter photometer that can be used in the lab or in the field. The metre is one of the most advanced on the market, with an innovative optical design that employs a reference detector and focusing lens to eliminate errors caused by changes in the light source and imperfections in the glass cuvette. This metre has nine different programmed methods for measuring eight key plant nutrient water quality parameters, as well as an absorbance measurement mode for performance verification and users who want to develop their own concentration versus absorbance curves. Potassium, calcium, and magnesium are planted nutrient-specific parameters.

With its digital pH/temperature electrode input, the HI83325 doubles as a professional pH meter, saving valuable laboratory benchtop space. Now, a single meter can perform both photometric and pH measurements.

  • A cutting-edge optical system
  • A benchtop photometer with unrivaled performance
  • Input from a digital pH electrode
  • Save valuable bench space by using a meter that functions as both a photometer and a laboratory pH meter.
  • Mode of measuring absorbance

Advanced Optical System

HI83325 is designed with an innovative optical system that incorporates a beam splitter so that light can be used for absorbance readings and for a reference detector. The reference detector monitors the intensity of light and modulates when there is drift due to power fluctuation or the heating of the optical components. Each part has an important role in providing unparalleled performance from a photometer.

High Efficiency LED Light Source

An LED light source offers superior performance as compared to a tungsten lamp. LEDs have a much higher luminous efficiency, providing more light while using less power. They also produce very little heat, which could otherwise affect the optical components and electronic stability. LEDs are available in a wide array of wavelengths, whereas tungsten lamps are supposed to be white light (all wavelengths of visible light) but actually have a poor blue/violet light output.

High-Quality Narrow Band Interference Filters

The narrow band interference filter not only ensures greater wavelength accuracy (+/- 1 nm) but are extremely efficient. The filters used allow up to 95% of the light from the LED to be transmitted as compared to other filters that are only 75% efficient. The higher efficiency allows for a brighter, stronger light source. The end result is higher measurement stability and less wavelength error.

Reference Detector for a Stable Light Source

A beam splitter is used as part of the internal reference system of the HI83325 photometer. The reference detector compensates for any drift due to power fluctuations or ambient temperature changes. Now you can rely on a stable source of light between your blank (zero) measurement and sample measurement.

Large Cuvette Size

The sample cell of the HI83325 fits a round, glass cuvette with a 25 mm path length. Along with the advanced optical components, the larger size of the cuvette greatly reduces errors in rotation from the indexing mark of the cuvettes. The relatively long path length of the sample cuvette allows the light to pass through more of the sample solution, ensuring accurate measurements even in low absorbance samples.

Focusing Lens for Greater Light Yield

Adding a focusing lens to the optical path allows for the collection of all of the light that exits the cuvette and focusing the light on the silicon photodetector. This novel approach to photometric measurements cancels the errors from imperfections and scratches present in the glass cuvette eliminating the need to index the cuvette.
