(C102CS3) Quartz Standard Cuvette, 10 mm Path, 3.5 mL
Original price was: $128.00.$116.00Current price is: $116.00.
C102CS3 is a JGS1 quartz standard cuvette for UV/Vis spectroscopy with a 10 mm optical path and 3.5 mL nominal capacity. The open rectangular cell is filled from the top and supplied with a lid for covered handling during routine use. This listing covers the C102CS3 cuvette body and lid.
Description
C102CS3 is a JGS1 quartz standard cuvette for UV/Vis work across 190–2500 nm. It combines a 10 mm optical path with a 3.5 mL nominal capacity in a full-size rectangular cell, making it a practical choice when your method is written for a standard 10 mm cuvette and you want straightforward top filling with simple cover placement after loading.
The lid covers the opening during routine handling, but the cell remains a top-access format rather than a sealed or pressure-rated assembly. The stated 3.5 mL figure is the nominal capacity of the cell, not a minimum working volume, so final fill level still depends on your beam position and method setup.

Choose this option
Choose C102CS3 when you need the familiar 10 mm absorbance path in a standard quartz cell and want enough nominal capacity for ordinary top-filled UV/Vis measurements without moving to a special micro-volume format. The covered opening is useful when you prepare blanks and samples by pipette or transfer them manually between steps, while keeping the cell easy to rinse and inspect.
What makes this option different
- 10 mm optical path suits methods written around the standard rectangular cuvette format.
- 3.5 mL nominal capacity gives a full-size sample chamber for routine top filling; it should not be treated as the minimum fill needed for measurement.
- Lid closure covers the opening after filling while leaving direct access from the top during loading and cleaning.
- JGS1 quartz body supports UV/Vis use over the stated 190–2500 nm range.
- Uncapped body dimensions of 12.5 × 12.5 × 45 mm help you check holder seating separately from lid clearance above the cell.
Using this cell
Fill from the top and make sure the liquid level fully covers the measurement beam in your setup. For routine absorbance work, keep the same orientation for blank and sample, remove visible bubbles before reading, and handle the cell by the non-optical sides to keep the windows clean.
Place the lid after filling when you want simple top coverage during transfer or measurement setup. Because the working fill requirement is not established here, do not use the nominal 3.5 mL capacity as a substitute for your instrument’s actual beam height and method conditions.
First-use check
- Inspect the cuvette body and lid for chips, cracks, residue or other visible damage.
- Test the empty cell in your holder to confirm stable seating and enough top clearance for your handling routine.
- Rinse appropriately for your method and run a blank before measuring samples.
Fit and optical alignment
The stated external dimensions are 12.5 × 12.5 × 45 mm for the uncapped cell body. This is useful for checking holder seating, but it does not include the lid or any extra top clearance you may need once the cell is covered.
Z Height is not stated for this SKU. If your instrument, sipper accessory or holder depends on a defined beam-center height, verify that requirement before ordering rather than relying on the outer body size alone.
Solvents and cleaning
Do not use hydrofluoric acid on quartz. Avoid hot strong alkalis and abrasive cleaning, and wipe the outside optical faces gently with non-abrasive optical tissue.
The chemical limits of this exact assembly are not established here, so if your samples or cleaning routine involve aggressive solvents or demanding conditions, check suitability before ordering. For general construction background, see Compare fabrication options.
Included with this option
This option includes the C102CS3 cuvette body and a lid. Package quantity and any other included accessories are not specified here.
