Precision for Bioprocessing & Biotech

In bioprocessing, small deviations can have a big impact on yield and product quality. The Kemtrak UV Spectra is engineered for applications where accuracy and repeatability are essential, including:

  • Protein and peptide quantification
  • mRNA/DNA and oligonucleotide monitoring
  • Amino acid and intermediate concentration tracking
  • Purity checks and impurity profiling

Real-time absorbance data helps operators adjust conditions quickly, reduce variability, and maintain process performance over long campaigns.


Advanced Multi-Wavelength Detection

The UV Spectra supports up to 10 independently selectable wavelengths in the deep UV and UV-visible range, allowing you to:

  • Target specific absorbance peaks for key biomolecules
  • Monitor multiple species or quality attributes with a single analyzer
  • Build robust methods for both development and production environments

This flexibility makes the system suitable for:

  • Method development in R&D and pilot plants
  • Technology transfer to manufacturing
  • Continuous process verification and monitoring

Built for Demanding Workflows

The Kemtrak UV Spectra is designed to fit into both laboratory-style skid systems and full-scale production lines:

  • Suitable for post-column API detection and other chromatography-based processes
  • Handles concentrations from trace levels to ultra-high concentrations
  • Supports continuous monitoring for contamination, breakthrough, and process disturbances

The intuitive touchscreen interface provides straightforward control, quick wavelength selection, and clear visualization of process trends.


Smart, Sustainable Light Source

mercury-free deep UV light source with a typical lifetime of up to two years of continuous operation. This delivers:

  • Reduced maintenance requirements
  • Lower operating costs
  • Improved environmental performance compared to traditional mercury-based sources

Compliance, Documentation & Verification

For regulated environments, the UV Spectra is supplied with a comprehensive documentation package aligned with industry and regulatory expectations. In addition:

  • Kemtrak offers traceable reference standards (NIST and other recognized systems) to support calibration and verification.
  • An integrated verification port allows checks to be performed without opening or contaminating the process line, helping meet internal QA/QC and external audit requirements.

Integration with Your Control System

With digital industrial protocols and standard analogue outputs available, the Kemtrak UV Spectra can be easily integrated into existing automation architectures:

  • Digital: ProfiNet, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP
  • Local HMI and web-based graphical user interface for remote access, configuration, and diagnostics

This connectivity simplifies:

  • Data collection and trending
  • Advanced control strategies
  • Integration into PAT (Process Analytical Technology) frameworks
