Choose the Frontier^™ range of Fourier Transform IR spectrometers for superior spectroscopic performance in demanding applications. Powerful and adaptable, the Frontier meets all your current analysis needs and can be expanded as your research goals evolve. An exceptional signal-to-noise ratio and photometric performance assures optimal spectral quality to ensure best-in-class sensitivity. This configurable platform provides dependable and consistent operation through years of service.

IR Ready for Any Challenge

The Frontier^™ MIR is the industry standard regarding laboratory FT-IR performance. The system can be upgraded to a Spotlight^™ microscope system, have an external optical bench added, or be configured with an upgraded or additional detector at any time.

The Frontier MIR is suitable for a wide range of applications and can be configured to your needs regarding the level of performance desired to meet the demand of your daily IR analyses. See the configurations table below for all available instrument options.

Frontier FT-MIR spectrometers feature:

• Standard, high-performance, room-temperature LiTaO₃ (lithium tantalate) MIR detector with a SNR of 10,000:1
• Optional temperature-stabilized DTGS (deuterated triglycine sulfate) detector, ideal for low-light, high throughput applications with an enhanced SNR of 15,000:1
• Optional second liquid nitrogen cooled MCT (mercury cadmium telluride) detector
• Optical system with KBr beamsplitter to enable quality data collection over a range of 8,300 – 350 cm^-1 at a best resolution of 0.4 cm^-1
• Optional CsI beamsplitter to enable superior data collection over a range of 7,800 – 225 cm^-1
• Optional gold optics with the Gold Pack to achieve a greater SNR
• Standard KBr windows
• Standard AVC/APV/AVI configuration

An External Beam Pack can be configured to allow for automatic beam path switching for use with external accessories such as the Spotlight^™ microscope, NIRA accessory, and the General Purpose Optical Bench.

Setting the Standard

The Frontier is loaded with a range of advanced innovations designed to provide optimal performance from the configuration you choose.

• Dynascan^™ interferometer – Fixed mirror-pair interferometer design does not require dynamic alignment to compensate for errors.
• Atmospheric Vapor Compensation^™ (AVC) – Features an advanced digital filtering algorithm designed to compensate for CO₂ and H₂O absorptions in real time removing the need for instrument purging.
• Automatic Performance Verification^™ (APV) – Optional feature comprising an integrated, fully automatic filter wheel containing traceable reference materials and software allowing for abscissa, ordinate, noise, ASTM, and USP tests to be performed.
• Absolute Virtual Instrument^™ (AVI) – Optional AVI standardization using gas phase methane spectra ensures instruments are accurately calibrated. Unique standardization allows data to be transferred precisely between instruments, side-by-side or in remote locations.
• Sigma-Delta Conversion: The use of Sigma-Delta converters in the digitization of the FT-IR interferogram improves the dynamic range, reduces spectral artifacts, and increases ordinate linearity to provide accurate, reproducible results.
• Variable J-stop – Limits beam divergence to provide optimal measurements at all resolutions, including intermediate settings.
• Output focusing optics for second sampling station – Enables two sampling accessories to be installed simultaneously, removing the need to switch modules between measurements.

Frontier is designed to function with a variety of sampling accessories to enhance the versatility of the instrument including the Diffuse Reflectance Accessory, HATR, NIRA, TG-IR interface, UATR, Polarized UATR, General-Purpose Optical Bench, and Specular Reflectance Accessory.

Results Matter

The Spectrum 10 software suite drives the Frontier MIR system and can support advanced FT-IR analysis in research and industrial laboratories, always providing optimal results. The software supplied with your instrument enables you to control the instrument and to manipulate the spectra that you collect. The spectrometers can operate in ratio, single-beam, or interferogram mode.

For regulated industries that demand secure IR quality testing, Spectrum 10 ES^™ software is available and encompasses user access control, audit trailing, data security, and data integrity to ensure secure analyses to meet the technical demands of 21 CFR Part 11 compliance. The revolutionary Spectrum AssureID^™ software is available and can provide manufacturing QA/QC functions with a rapid, unambiguous means of verifying identity and quality of a production material. Spectrum Quant is an optional software package designed for novice and advanced spectroscopists who need to integrate accurate quantitative analysis into their MIR analysis.
