Nicolet Summit FTIR Spectrometers

Let the Nicolet Summit PRO FTIR Spectrometer help you reach new heights in productivity, so you can accomplish more in less time. Whether you are managing a QA/QC lab or a crowded teaching lab for university students, this spectrometer meets the demands of your busy, multi-user laboratory. 

Along with the trusted high-performance optics and user-friendly interface of the OMNIC Paradigm Software, the Nicolet Summit PRO FTIR Spectrometer supports a range of useful features:

• Integrated computer: Save space and money when you run the OMNIC Paradigm Software on the built-in Windows 10^® computer
• LightBar: Unique multi-colored (green, red, blue, yellow) LED lights on the front provide real-time feedback on instrument status and visual PASS/FAIL indication of product quality
• Touchscreen monitor (optional): Integrated touchscreen eliminated the need for a computer and provides a simplified, fast workflow interface

The Nicolet Summit OA FTIR Spectrometer delivers reliable data by minimizing the steps needed to measure and identify materials – all in a rugged, compact footprint. Easily develop custom workflows specific to the demands of your facility using OMNIC Paradigm Software. Bundle application-specific workflows into packages for easy implementation.

For the ultimate in reliability and accuracy, the Nicolet Summit OA FTIR Spectrometer is designed with our unique LightDrive Optical Engine.

• Improve data reproducibility: Our state-of-the-art infrared source eliminates hot spot migration, resulting in more consistent spectral data, especially through the integrated HATR accessory
• Low-cost ownership: A 10-year warranty on IR source, interferometer and laser for minimal maintenance comes standard. Service and support contracts and training are also available from Unity™ Lab Services or from our worldwide network of qualified dealers
• Factory-verified specification: Do better than just “typical” or “achievable” results

Understand what chemical properties you need to control when designing new materials. Advanced features allow you to catch changes in additive formulations, spot degradation of multi-layer polymer composites, identify weakened packaging materials, and see the effects of process curing times on polymer specifications.

How to Analyze Polymer Samples via FTIR Specular Reflectance Spectroscopy

Keep students engaged with this intuitive spectrometer and lesson plans that help you demonstrate different functional groups of the IR spectra. Have students quickly measure samples in a crowded teaching lab and then analyze data later, on or off campus, using the OMNIC Anywhere Software.

Confidently identify different grades of jade or uncover the composition of a mineral sample using the Nicolet FTIR Summit Spectrometer. Find out how the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) uses FTIR spectroscopy for identifying treated versus untreated gemstones.

After optimizing your lithium battery alternatives (e.g., Li-S, Li-O₂, Na-ion) and electrolyte formulations, inspect product quality and collect chemical information that assures specifications have been met. The non-destructive nature of FTIR spectroscopy makes this an ideal technique for quickly catching changes that can affect battery life and safety.

From leather interiors to dashboard components to fuel additives, the Nicolet Summit FTIR Spectrometer can help you improve profitability, performance and appeal of your automotive design. Reveal the chemistry and composition of materials used to manufacture today’s fuel-efficient cars and trucks.

Eliminate sample prep with the Everest Diamond ATR Accessory for the Nicolet Summit FTIR Spectrometer. A monolithic diamond ATR crystal and high-efficiency, all-reflective optics combine with a variety of interchangeable crystal plates to provide the robustness and flexibility required to meet your material identification and verification needs.

Simultaneously view and collect an infrared (IR) spectrum with the Czitek™ SurveyIR™ Microspectroscopy Accessory. Place this microsampling accessory in the sample compartment of the Nicolet Summit FTIR Spectrometer to view and collect data in reflection, transmission, and ATR modes. A choice of three on-board illumination modes creates excellent contrast over a wide range of specimen morphologies.

Easily perform spectral analysis on large objects, artwork, and paintings using the Thermo Scientific ConservatIR FTIR External Reflection Accessory. This accessory measures samples too large to fit into a Thermo Scientific Nicolet FTIR Spectrometer sample compartment. The articulated arm simplifies sample analysis for specular, diffuse, and ATR measurements with the object in front, below, or above the spectrometer sample compartment. The ConservatIR accessory comes standard with a specular/diffuse reflection sampling head, and a diamond ATR sampling head is available as an option.
