The Agilent Vaya handheld Raman spectrometer increases raw material identity verification throughput without increasing costs by reducing the need for sampling. From clear glass vials to brown paper sacks, Vaya offers best-in-class testing through transparent containers, and transformative handheld testing through nontransparent containers – for the fastest possible release to manufacturing.

Vaya improves current testing protocols—from low volume sampling to 100% ID testing— and if regulators require more testing in future, you can move to a higher-throughput process without any additional equipment. The system combines conventional Raman with unique spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS) for maximum sample/container compatibility. With a dedicated raw material identity testing workflow, Vaya is fast, fully compliant, easy to deploy and simple to use, requiring minimal training or operator skill.

Advanced Spectrophotometry, Optical Performance and Efficiency

Our range of powerful and productive UV-Vis and UV-Vis-NIR molecular spectroscopy systems offers options for any optical application. The Cary 60 Spectrophotometer has a unique Xenon flash lamp to enable remote sampling, while the Cary 4000 allows you to measure highly turbid solutions without an integrating sphere. The Cary 8454 photodiode array captures the complete UV-Vis spectrum (190-1100nm) in less than one second.

The Armfield C15 is a new computer-controlled subsonic benchtop wind tunnel designed for undergraduate teaching. A small, benchtop wind tunnel, with visible working section. A wide range of accessories and instrumentation options are available, allowing a comprehensive study of subsonic aerodynamics. The facility is suitable for undergraduate training and project work.

The Armfield Fluid Friction Measurements unit provides facilities for the detailed study of fluid friction head losses which occur when an incompressible fluid flows through pipes, fittings and flow metering devices. The unit is designed for use with the Armfield F1-10 Hydraulics bench.
