[PerkinElmer Descriptions](https://knowledge.cphnano.com/en/pages/spectrophotometry-fundamentals#perkinelmer-descriptions) May 18, 2022 # PerkinElmer UV-Vis instruments ## As pioneers of the first commercial IR spectrometer developed over 60 years ago, PerkinElmer continue to advance their material characterization technologies and to deliver solutions that support the innovation towards a healthier world. ### PerkinElmer and spectrophotometry PerkinElmer enables scientists, researchers and clinicians to address their respective challenges and thus their instruments see wide usage across the fields of science and healthcare. PerkinElmer focuses on innovation towards a healthier world. Therefore, PerkinElmer delivers solutions to serve the diagnostics, life sciences, food and applied markets. As pioneers of the first commercial IR spectrometer which was developed more than 60 years ago, PerkinElmer continue to advance their material characterization technologies and are still dedicated to the user for all of their molecular spectroscopy needs. This is due to PerkinElmer’s comprehensive portfolio of analytical solutions including the ideal molecular spectroscopy instruments for any lab to measure UV, infrared, and fluorescence. The [PerkinElmer Lambda XLS](https://knowledge.cphnano.com/en/knowledge/perkinelmer-lambda-xls-uv-vis-spectrophotometer) offers great value for money. It features an ultra fast initialization, enabling the users to analyze a full range of spectra in less than 3 seconds. The more advanced [PerkinElmer Lambda 365](https://knowledge.cphnano.com/en/knowledge/perkinelmer-lambda-365-uv-vis-spectrophotometer) has amazing features, including a compact design, high stability, low stray light, a variable spectral bandwidth, and a 21 CFR part 11 compliant software.    To learn more about the values of the PerkinElmer company watch the video below.     The following pages contain a quick review of the different PerkinElmer instruments. Click on the links on each instrument to learn more about it:   > - **PerkinElmer Labda XLS** > The [PerkinElmer Labda XLS](https://knowledge.cphnano.com/en/knowledge/perkinelmer-lambda-xls-uv-vis-spectrophotometer) is designed for academic and industrial laboratories that require a small-footprint instrument, the performance of this instrument is normally only found in more expensive systems.
