Stopped flow-option for Luzchem laser flash photolysis systems:
rapid kinetics made easy and affordable
The stopped-flow option, SFA-X, adds capabilities to Luzchem's laser flash photolysis systems models LFP-111 and LFP-112. This accessory takes advantage of the components already used to monitor laser flash photolysis signals (ceramic xenon lamp, monochromator, photomultiplier and other hardware) to result in a powerful, yet cost effective rapid kinetics stopped-flow apparatus. In addition, an upgraded version of the control and analysis software allows a seamless integration with Luzchem's applications for laser flash photolysis and diffuse reflectance. The stopped-flow SFA-X is based on proven TDI technology, a Canadian company that started commercializing stopped-flow instruments in 1973. The instrument is easily coupled with optical fibers to the xenon lamp and detection system. An electronic shutter built-in the xenon illuminator limits light exposure to only the monitoring period.

Stopped Flow System Standard capabilities include transmission measurements in the 240 to 850 nm range using a 15 mm path cell, and mixing times below 2 milliseconds. The instrument electronics allow data collection in the submicrosecond time scale, and responses are only limited by mixing time. Temperature control is available as an option.


The SFA-X stopped-flow option can be either factory installed, or retrofitted to older laser flash photolysis systems. A fluorescence detection option will be available in the near future.

Stand alone stopped flow systems: A partnership of Luzchem and TDI technologies. Thirty years of experience packaged in a small affordable unit.
