OverviewThe IRSpirit-X Series FTIR spectrophotometers combine a compact bench footprint with a standard-size sample compartment compatible with Shimadzu and third-party accessories. Instruments include IR Pilot software with 23 ready-to-use application workflows and pre-built macros to streamline routine analyses. Available models: IRSpirit-TX (high sensitivity), IRSpirit-LX (cost-effective), IRSpirit-ZX (humidity resistant).
Software and key functions- IR Pilot: 23 application workflows and one-click macros for fast start-up and repeated measurements.
- Spectrum Advisor to support spectral interpretation and reduce operator dependency.
- Contaminant Analysis Program using a spectral library (>550 spectra) and automated pass/fail reporting.
- Identification Test Program for compliance with pharmacopoeia and standard inspection methods.
Performance and reliability- Interferometer and optics adapted from higher-end models to ensure measurement stability.
- Humidity-resistant design in ZX model; optional internal dehumidifier available for high-humidity environments.
- Instrument status monitoring and maintenance alerts for reliable deployment.
- Reliable parts with a 10-year warranty; replacement labor may incur additional fees.
Operation and productivity- Easy Macro: run routine workflows with a single click and measure multiple samples with minimal setup.
- Expandable configuration and accessory compatibility for laboratories with space constraints.
- Compatible with Shimadzu analysis options (IRPilot, IRTracer, EDXIR-Analysis, LabSolutions, QATR, EDXIR-Holder).
