laboratory productivity and quickly collect high-quality spectral data with the Thermo Scientific™ Nicolet™ iS20 FTIR Spectrometer. An integrated touch panel allows users of any skill level to quickly analyze challenging samples and a new multi-color LED scan bar gives users immediate feedback on whether the instrument is in idle, collect or alert mode. Identify unknown contaminants, perform failure analysis and accurately analyze mixtures using the spectral power of the Thermo Scientific™ LightDrive™ Optical Engine built into each instrument. A 10-year warranty on the source, laser and interferometer provide peace of mind for years to come.
Thermo Scientific™ Nicolet™ FTIR Spectrometers offer many advantages over otheranalysis techniques. The important include a drastic reduction of the timeneeded for data acquisition, component specificity, and sensitivity. Other benefitsinclude the internal wavelength calibration, which ensures the precision of theanalysis. With constant improvement in computing power, modern spectroscopysoftware, and advanced chemometric methodology, FTIR is becoming ever moreprevalent in addressing a wide variety of commercial applications.
From simple identifications using library comparisons to sophisticated quantitativeanalysis, method development, spectrometer operation, and data manipulation areboth simple and powerful.
