STA/FTIR

STA–Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy System

In thermal analysis, it is possible to determine the temperature at which a sample undergoes thermal changes, but not which components are released as vapors. By performing Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) simultaneously, qualitative analysis of gases generated by volatilization or thermal decomposition can be carried out, and the changes in their evolution can be tracked with respect to temperature.

STA/FTIR Options

The following accessories are available for this product:

ASC for STAvesta

Optional ASC (Auto Sample Changer) for greater throughput Upgradeable with ASC for automated measurements

STAvesta ASC Safety cover

The ASC safety cover is designed to reduce mechanical hazards associated with the automatic sample changer (ASC).

Gas Selector

Links to the measurement program and switches the gases flowing into the sample chamber.

Flow Meter

The flow meter controls the flow rate of the atmospheric gas (inert gas, air, etc.) supplied to the sample chamber.

2ch-FLOW COMPO Jr.

Enables gas flow, flow rate setting and switching of gases with precision specified in the measurement program. Gas types and full scale can be selected.

Sample Pan

Depending on the sample to be measured (especially if the sample is metal), it may melt the sample pan and damage the sample holder or other parts of the instrument.
