The FT/lR-6X and FT/lR-8X spectrometers offer a highly configurable optical system applicable to virtually any FTIR application, from simple Mid IR measurement to more complex analysis in the farthest reaches of the electromagnetic spectrum. Research-based measurements are easily performed on the FT/lR-6X or FT/lR-8X spectrometers with options such as full-vacuum, gold-coated optics, rapid & step scan and FT-Raman for more advanced experiments. Exchangeable elements combined with full automation can be used for spectral measurement from 25,000 cm-1 to less than 20 cm-1 without touching the system. The FT/lR-6X and FT/lR-8X spectrometers are compatible with a range of vacuum and configurable emission ports to perform experiments outside the sample compartment, and are also compatible with our comprehensive range of IR microscopes.
