These Durasens Rapid Flow Liquid Transmission Cells are designed to monitor liquid streams in process environments using transmission spectroscopy. The design of the cells allows for the high unimpeded flow of sample thus ensuring that the sample analyzed in the cell is the timely representation of the sample in the process line or reaction vessel. The rapid flow design also ensures that the cell does not get clogged by particulates in the process stream.
The spectroscopic sensitivity of the cells can be easily tailored to a particular application by selecting the pathlength spacer that optimizes the spectroscopic measurement. The cells can be used with FTIR spectrometers or with UV-Vis-NIR spectrometers depending on the window materials. Ambient and temperature controlled models mount directly in the sample compartment. Optional SMA interface for fiber optic spectrometers.
