Compact FT-NIR spectrometer for accurate on-site or laboratory analysis
PerkinElmer's Spectrum Two N is a portable FT-NIR spectrometer that redefines the standards of Fourier transform infrared analysis by combining high performance with ease of use. Designed to meet the needs of manufacturers and researchers in a variety of environments, from quality control laboratories to loading docks, it adapts to all logistical and analytical constraints without compromising the accuracy of results.
One of the major advantages of this spectrometer is its ability to operate in harsh environmental conditions thanks to its OpticsGuard™ technology, which protects the optical components from moisture, thereby extending the instrument's service life. The compact and robust design of the housing ensures reliable operation even in field conditions, while its battery and optional carrying case make it fully mobile for in situ measurements.
Spectrum quality is ensured by the Dynascan™ interferometer with fixed mirror pairs, eliminating the dynamic alignment errors common in other systems. The Atmospheric Vapor Compensation™ algorithm automatically compensates for atmospheric water absorption in real time, ensuring consistent reproducibility of results, even in uncontrolled environments.
The Spectrum Two N adapts to a wide variety of samples thanks to its plug-in accessories: NIRM reflectance module for solids, HTM heated transmission module for solid or liquid edible oils, and RSM remote sampling module for analysis through packaging. These modules allow for quick transition between different types of measurements without the need for complex recalibration.
On the software side, the system features Spectrum 10™, an intuitive interface that allows rapid spectrum acquisition and interpretation, accessible to both novice and experienced users. A secure version, Spectrum 10 ES, is available for regulated environments subject to 21 CFR Part 11, incorporating user management, electronic signatures and audit logs.
The Spectrum Two N is compatible with specialised software modules, such as Spectrum Touch™ for simplified workflows, Spectrum Quant™ for multivariate quantitative analysis, and Spectrum Adulterant Screen for sensitive contaminant detection. Absolute Virtual Instrument™ technology ensures perfect standardisation between instruments, enabling seamless method transfer between multiple sites.
Whether you need to check the purity of a raw material, analyse oils, ensure the compliance of recycled polymers or authenticate food, the Spectrum Two N guarantees reliable, reproducible and immediately usable results.
