The IRTracer-100 from Shimadzu is a Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectrophotometer that has a spectral range of 350 cm-1 - 7800 cm-1 (standard) and 240 cm-1 - 12500 cm-1 (optional). It has resolutions of 0.25 cm-1, 0.5 cm-1, 1 cm-1, 2 cm-1, 4 cm-1, 8 cm-1 & 16 cm-1 (middle/far IR) and 2 cm-1, 4 cm-1, 8 cm-1 & 16 cm-1 (near IR). This spectrometer has a signal-to-noise ratio of 60,000:1 and mirror speeds of 2 mm/sec, 2.8 mm/sec, 5 mm/sec, 9 mm/sec (Standard) & optional 10 mm/sec, 20 mm/sec, 30 mm/sec, 40 mm/sec (rapid scan).
The IRTracer-100 has a rapid scan of 20 spectra/s and uses DLATGS detector with temperature control for middle/far IR (standard), T2SL detector with built-in liquid nitrogen sensor for cooling in the middle/near IR & InGaAs detector for near IR (optional). It has a sealed michelson interferometer equipped with an advanced dynamic alignment system and a unique internal automatic dehumidifier. This spectrometer has a germanium-coated KBr beam splitter for middle IR (standard), germanium-coated CsI beam splitter for middle/far IR (optional), and silicon-coated CaF2 beam splitter for near IR (optional).
The IRTracer-100 has a high-energy ceramic light source for middle/far IR (standard) and tungsten lamp light source for near IR (optional). It is equipped with a validation program that verifies FTIR performance. This spectrometer supports fast, easy-to-use LabSolutions IR series software and has automation & labor-savings with macro program functions. It is ideal for pharmaceuticals, food products, chemicals and polymers, cosmetics, and environmental applications.
