Dear Amanda, The DiscovIR-GC® system is a GC-IR system which uses ‘Direct deposition’ as its operating principle. Components from the GC separation are deposited onto a cryogenically cooled Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) sample disk. The unique configuration provides individual solid phase transmission spectra of each component. No other GC-IR system has the capability to produce solid phase transmission spectra.
The IR spectral range of the DiscovIR-GC® is 4000-700cm-1. The sample may also be scanned post run to increase the signal to noise ratio. The DiscovIR-GC® system has many unique features which provide the best spectral quality and sensitivity available.
DiscovIR-GC® products are proudly manufactured in USA by Spectra Analysis Instruments, Inc. manufacturing facility at 257 Simarano Drive, Marlborough MA 01752 USA.
