ECHNOLOGY
The NanoPhotometer
®
technology is maintenance free. Regular maintenance and calibration is
not necessary.
For facilities that are working according to national as well as international guidelines and
standards including: Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), or
ISO9000-9004; the proper performance of the spectrophotometer has to be tested and proven
on a regular basis with individually set intervals. Implen provides certified NanoPhotometer
®
secondary standards as an optional accessory. These NanoPhotometer
®
Didymium glass filters
and standard solution sets are suitable for the control and documentation of the wavelength
accuracy and the photometric accuracy of your system. IQ/OQ documentation is also available.
Please contact your local Implen office or an authorized Implen partner for further information.
Support agreements that help to fulfill the demands of regulatory guidelines concerning
GLP/GMP include: calibration certification using filters traceable to international standards
(during production and quality control), certified engineers and calibrated test equipment,
approved to ISO 9001 standard, automatic self-diagnostic calibration test during start of the
