Fiber Optic ATR Probes for Harsh Environment
FlexiSpec® probes include new type of Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR) probes designed for harsh application conditions.
HT-ATR immersion IR-fiber probes can be used for process-spectroscopy in Near & Mid IR range to monitor reactions in-line in a broad temperature range from -100° to +250°C. HT-ATR immersion IR-fiber probes can withstand pressures up to 200Bar and used with FTIR or any other IR-spectrometers and spectral sensors in automated process control with process-interfaces.
