Dimensional Measurement & Inspection Probes
Fiber-Optic Coupled ATR Probes suit mid-IR liquid analyses.
Press Release Summary:
Offered in 2 diameters, DPR-F and DMD-F Series Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) probes are available in diamond-tipped versions with Hastelloy bodies and PTFE seals. Both utilize silver halide optical fibers to provide flexible coupling between probe and FTIR mid-IR spectrometer. Photometric accuracy results from control of optical ray directions and number of reflections within ATR element. Probes may be used with strong acids and bases as well as other aggressive chemistries.
Original Press Release:
Axiom Analytical, Inc. Announces Fiber-Optic Coupled Attenuated Total Reflectance Probes for Mid-Infrared Liquid Analysis
IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 21, 2007 - Axiom Analytical Inc., a leading supplier of sampling equipment, software, and integrated systems for all forms of molecular spectroscopy, today announced the availability of its DPR-F and DMD-F Series Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) Probes.
The "F" Series probes are fiber-optic coupled versions of Axiom's DPR Series conventional and DMD Series diamond-tipped ATR probes. The new probes utilize silver halide optical fibers to provide flexible coupling between the probe and an FTIR mid-IR spectrometer. In common with the direct-coupled DPR and DMD probes they feature a very high degree of photometric accuracy resulting from precise control of the optical ray directions and number of reflections within the ATR element. As a result, calibrations obtained when using these probes can be transferred between installations employing any of the various Axiom ATR probes.
DPR-F and DMD-F ATR probes are available in two different diameters. The smaller diameter probes are compatible with a wide variety of laboratory reaction vessels. The larger diameter probes are optimized for applications such as on-line process monitoring which typically require higher optical transmission. Both sizes are available in diamond tipped versions with Hastelloy bodies and PTFE seals. These probes are suitable for use with strong acids and bases as well as other aggressive chemistries.
