New Infrared Spectrometer Meets Advanced Analytical Challenges

 
         PerkinElmer (USA), have announced the launch of the FrontierTM Infrared Spectrometer, a high performance infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer.
Part of a new family of spectrometers, the Frontier analytical platform meets diverse FT-IR challenges ranging from everyday measurements to the most advanced, complex analyses. The instrument combines sensitivity with flexibility for many diverse sectors, from polymers and chemicals to consumer goods and pharmaceuticals, helping to protect consumers and the environment across the world.
Frontier’s superb sensitivity and configurability ensure superior performance in demanding applications,           
              helping to advance safe drug development, understand complex chemical and material properties, and meet the challenging requirements of research and academia. Dusty Tenney, president, Analytical Sciences and Laboratory Services, Perkin Elmer, commented, “With more than 65 years of experience in spectroscopy, Perkin Elmer has now developed a specialized infrared spectroscopy platform that can be adapted for customers’ research requirements. With Frontier, multiple analysis can be conducted using a single instrument. From near- to far-infrared analysis, Frontier is our most powerful spectrometer to date.”
             A range of patented PerkinElmer technologies enable the Frontier to produce superior infrared spectra. Atmospheric Vapor Compensation™ (AVC) features an advanced digital filtering algorithm designed to eliminate CO2 and H2O interferences for accurate FT-IR results. The fifth generation Dynascan™ fixed mirror-pair interferometer requires no dynamic alignment to compensate for errors in linear mirror movement. PerkinElmer’s AVI Standardisation™ calibrates spectrometer wavelength scales to a higher accuracy than achieved with conventional calibration methods.
