Thermo Electron Delivers Total Solutions FT-IR Package for QA/QC Laboratories
MADISON, Wisconsin (January 7, 2005) - Thermo Electron Corporation (NYSE: TMO) introduces the Nicolet(TM) 380, a reliable, routine analysis FT-IR spectrometer designed to quickly identify, quantify and verify samples. This new, high-performance spectrometer is primarily targeted at QA/QC laboratories within the pharmaceutical, chemical and polymeric industries that need to achieve maximum productivity and efficiency with optimized workflow processes. The Nicolet 380 uses complete system integration, plug-and-play sampling, and computer-based expertise to guide the user through the experiment. A comprehensive spectrometer qualification package is available to verify system performance in compliance with ISO and GLP/cGMP criteria. A dynamically aligned interferometer and a robust design ensure reproducible results. New integrated scan buttons on the spectrometer benchtop allow for easy operation of common FT-IR functions ideal for both industrial and academic laboratories. The spectrometer is available for analysis in the far-, near-, and mid-IR regions and can also be configured with FT-IR microscopes. The design of the Nicolet 380 allows users to achieve a wavelength precision of better than 0.01 cm-1 without using mathematical factors that alter data and are difficult to explain in a standard operating procedure (SOP). State-of-the-art electronics provide quick response time, 24-bit A/D converter and USB 2.0 interface. Once the system detects something unusual, the problem is either fixed automatically, or with the aid of precise and intuitive options that are provided through the enhanced synchronization protocol (ESP) technology. Despite its compact size, the Nicolet 380 offers a full-sized compartment for snap-in-place Smart Accessories(TM) technology to customize and optimize the spectrometer for specific analyses.
