Well, the one picture is a Perkin-Elmer UV-Vis spectrometer. It's for determining the absorbance of a solution at particular wavelengths in the visible and ultraviolet areas of the spectrum.

The other bits of equipment look Dutch to me.

Which 'this' ?

Top right is a frequency generator.

4th down on the left clearly says 'Perkins-Elmer UV-Vis Spectrometer' on it, model 139.

The ones that say 'Power Unit' on them are, er, Power Units.

The IHBO stickers are electrical testing stickers from a local Dutch company.

Are you trying to sell them ?

You have the power supply for a hydrogen (H) and/ or Tungsten (W) lamp
The only similar ones I have ever used were designed to work with deuterium lamps (which are more efficient) so I guess that supply is over 30 years old.
I'm most interested in the first (top left) item.
Any more pics of it?

How did you acquire these items? I'm baffled by the first (top left) item.

Top left 8mm film splicer. Top right 3-10Mhz frequency generator.
Should have an external modulation input on the generator somewhere.

I wondered about that.
