FTIR-FC ATR FTIR

Compact ATR FT-IR Spectrometer

Stock Status: On The Way


Introduction

Compact FTIR for operation with ATR fibered probes

The Arcoptix FTIR-FC (Fiber-Coupling) is a variant of our FTIR Rocket spectrometer especially designed for operation with mid-IR optical fiber probes. It is a plug-and-play instrument including an IR source, high-stability interferometer, IR detector and SMA fiber couplers. The instrument was especially developed with process-monitoring applications in mind, using fibered ATR probes. For a selection of ATR probes, pelase open the "Accessories" tab.

4-TE or Liquid-Nitrogen cooled MCT detectors available

The Arcoptix FTIR-FC can be equipped with both 4-stage thermo-electrically (TE) cooled or liquid-nitrogen cooled MCT detectors. The TE-cooled detectors in the FTIR-FC are the most sensitive TE-cooled detectors availabe on the market and offer a reliable and maintenance-free operation. For ultimate sensitivity levels, the FTIR-FC can also be equipped with a liquid-nitrogen cooled detector. The 4-TE and liquid-nitrogen cooled detectors are intercheangable by the user.

Applications

Chemical process-control with fibered ATR probes

The Arcoptix FTIR-FC was developed with chemical process-control applications in mind, using ATR fibered probes. These probes can be immersed into highly corrosive liquids at high temperatures and pressures, making them suitable for use in chemical reaction vessels and other extremely harsh environments. A list of available probes can be found under the Accessories tab.
