The ConcentratIR™ is a horizontal multiple internal reflection (ATR) accessory, designed for micro-liquid samples. The ConcentratIR™ was developed specifically for use in quality control environments. It is a durable, compact, horizontal ATR micro-sampler that utilizes a Si or diamond ATR internal reflection element. The infrared beam interacts seven or fifteen times respectively for diamond or silicon, within a 4-mm diameter area. This concentrates the sensitivity of a regular horizontal ATR into a much smaller area and hence requires only minute quantities of sample per measurement. The ConcentratIR™ makes ATR micro-sampling simpler and more straightforward than ever before. For rapid sample exchange without interrupting the purge of the spectrometer, the ConcentratIR™ integrates Harrick’s exclusive PermaPurge™.
The ConcentratIR™ is invaluable for studying minute samples of liquids and pastes by multiple reflection ATR spectrscopy and is uniquely suited to quality control environments.
