FTIR Gas Analyzer for Advanced Gas and Material Analysis
FTIR Gas Analyzer for High-Precision Infrared Spectral Analysis
The FTIR gas analyzer from Instrava is a high-performance Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer designed for precise gas analysis and molecular identification. Using the Michelson interferometer principle, the system measures infrared absorption spectra to accurately determine gas composition and molecular structure.
In the FTIR analyzer, infrared light emitted by the source passes through the Michelson interferometer, creating optical interference that interacts with the sample. The detector captures the interference signal containing the sample information, and advanced software performs Fourier transform processing to generate the spectral data.
This technology allows the FTIR gas analyzer to provide highly accurate spectral measurements across a wide range of applications including gas analysis, chemical identification, and laboratory research.
