Compact and Affordable FT-IR Spectrometer
2 Sept 2010The Thermo Scientific Nicolet iS5 is designed for users seeking no-compromise, affordable and compact FT-IR spectroscopy to assist in their product assurance testing, basic troubleshooting and chemistry teaching.
The Nicolet™ iS™5 establishes a new benchmark in small-footprint laboratory FT-IR spectroscopy. Delivering comparable performance to full-size spectrometers, the instrument has an open-architecture sample compartment that accepts a wide variety of sampling accessories. The new Nicolet iS5 incorporates the award-winning OMNIC software, widely adopted by major industrial manufacturers and forensic laboratories around the world. The Nicolet iS5 spectrometer, its new iD sampling accessories and OMNIC software solutions for raw materials, impurities and mixtures identification, creates a unique user experience “from sample-in to answer-out.”
“The introduction of the Thermo Scientific Nicolet iS5 demonstrates our continuous effort in making spectroscopy genuinely simple, useful, and accessible. The value of this instrument is that it brings the Nicolet FT-IR user experience to new markets, cost-conscious businesses, developing economies, educators, or wherever entry-level FT-IR is required,” said Mike Jost, vice president and general manager of molecular spectroscopy and microanalysis Thermo Fisher Scientific: “The balance of performance, price and size also makes the new Nicolet iS5 spectrometer an ideal fit for world-class manufacturers seeking to protect their business and brand reputation by deploying the highest quality FT-IR methods throughout their organization.”
