Linkam FTIR Stages, < -195°C to 600°C
The FTIR600 stage has been adapted from the market-leading THMS600 high precision stage and enables infrared analysis of samples in the temperature range < -195°C up to 600°C, covering all applications from pharmaceuticals to polymers on most benchtop IR microscope systems (please ask for IR window kit). Alternative materials for the viewing windows such as zinc selenide and barium fluoride are also available.
Product Details
Description
The FTIR600 stage can be mounted horizontally for IR microscopy setups and vertically for cabinet type IR spectroscopy. The silver block has a tapered hole to allow maximum transmittance of IR without interference.
The FTIR600 stages have been designed to be used in applications where rapid heating/cooling rates and high levels of accuracy and stability are required, and are supplied in three standard versions:
- FTIR600 for horizontal mounting to IR microscopes.
- FTIRSP600 for vertical mounting in horizontal IR beam spectrometers, incorporating a vertical sample holder and detachable base plate for either free-standing or attachment to a bracket in the spectrometer chamber.
- FTIR600MSO for mounting onto a motorised table with a 160 x 110mm recess.

If you are using a light microscope, please gask for the STAGE CLAMPS options to check your microscope is compatible.
For information on transmitted light applications, please ask for the CONDENSER EXTENSION LENS options.
For automatic cooling the sample below ambient temperature down to -195C you will need the LNP96 - Liquid Nitrogen Cooling Systems.
