The PerkinElmer Spectrum One FT-IR Spectrometer: Spectroscopic analysis reinvented for accuracy and simplicity
The PerkinElmer Spectrum One FT-IR Spectrometer embodies the perfect combination of technological innovation, analytical performance and ease of use. Designed to meet the growing needs of modern laboratories, this instrument is the result of PerkinElmer's expertise, recognised worldwide in the field of analytical instrumentation. It stands out not only for the quality of its optical components, but also for its intelligent software that optimises every analysis, regardless of the user's level of expertise.
One of the fundamental elements of this instrument is its sealed and dried optical system, mounted on a vibration-isolated base, ensuring optimal stability during measurements. The Michelson interferometer has been redesigned to automatically compensate for dynamic variations such as tilt or shear, ensuring consistent spectral quality even after multiple measurement cycles. High-reflectivity aluminium optics provide excellent signal transmission, minimising losses and maximising sensitivity.
This spectrometer is compatible with various detectors, including FR-DTGS and lithium tantalate (LiTaO₃), both of which are electrically temperature-stabilised. For the most demanding applications, a liquid nitrogen-cooled MCT detector is available as an option. The spectral measurement range extends from 7,800 to 350 cm⁻¹ with the KBr separator, and can be extended down to 225 cm⁻¹ with the CsI option, offering exceptional flexibility for the analysis of many types of samples.
In addition to its hardware performance, the Spectrum One FT-IR stands out for its intuitive interface and comprehensive software, capable of performing complex qualitative and quantitative analyses. The virtual calibration system (AVI) standardises the instrument response, ensuring consistent results even over the long term. In addition, automatic accessory recognition optimises the measurement parameters according to the components installed, significantly reducing the risk of human error.
The instrument is also designed to improve laboratory productivity: as soon as a sample is inserted, an automatic detection function triggers the analysis while the user enters the information. All operations are supported by powerful Windows-based software, including data processing modules, a secure login interface , and customised validation and reporting functions.
To complete the user experience, PerkinElmer offers a wide range of interactive tutorials, online training and certification modules to support learning and optimal use of the device and its accessories.
