The FT/lR-6X FTIR spectrometers with 28 degree Michelson interferometer and diode timing laser is an excellent choice for more demanding research applications, where better polarization performance or a more flexible approach to samples and measurement are required.
The configurable optical system applicable to virtually any FTIR application, from simple Mid IR measurement to more complex analysis in the near and far IR. Research-based measurements are easily performed using the FT/lR-6X or FT/lR-8X spectrometers with options such as full-vacuum, gold-coated optics, rapid & step scan and FT-Raman.
User-exchangeable components combined with full automation make it possible to perform 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 the comprehensive range of IR microscopes.

FT/IR-6X FTIR spectrometer
Wavelength Range
The standard spectrometer uses Ge/KBr beam-splitter with KRS-5 windows and a DLaTGS detector with KRS-5 window, spectral range 7,800 to 350 cm-1. There are a wide range of options to change the spectral range from 25,000 to 10 cm-1, including fully automated beam-splitter and window exchange for unattended operation. With the widest choice of materials, a wide spectral range can be covered using a minimum number of components including a combination of new broad-band beam splitter, window and detector materials covering the Mid-IR to Far-IR
Nitrogen Purge and Evacuation
A multi-zone N2 purge system is standard . This can be used to minimize the interference from environmental gases and vapors (CO2 and H20 elimination algorithms are also included). Available as an option, the interferometer, sample chamber and detector areas can all be independently evacuated in a full or partial vacuum instrument (useful for fast sample loading) to completely eliminate CO2 and H20 for the most sensitive sample measurements and as the moving mirror does not rely on an air-bearing, the vacuum can easily be maintained.
Emission Ports and Light Introduction
The FT/IR-6000 has several options for optical ports with a range of window materials for measurement of external sources of light and black body devices..
Rapid Scan
Optional Rapid Scan offers spectral collection at up to 40Hz.
