As far as I know, there are no regulatory requirements or limits on bandwidth per se (certainly not in UV detectors for LC). Inappropriate choice of bandwidth can increase noise (if it's too narrow), decrease absorbance or adversely affect specificity (it it's too broad), but it is the result that matters, not the bandwidth itself.
