23-mm diamond ATR
probe
Axiom Analytical has introduced the
DMD-373 diamond ATR probe, which is
similar to the existing DMD-370 but in a
smaller (23 mm) diameter, making it suitable
for a wide range of laboratory and
on-line process applications. The mid-IR
transmission of the new probe exceeds
10%, providing high performance with
FT-IR spectrometers with room-temperature
detectors. In common with the
DMD-370, the new probe features a

and on-line applications.

diamond ATR element, Hastelloy C-276
construction and energised PTFE seals,
allowing it to function over wide ranges
of temperatures and pressures, and with
aggressive chemical systems, including
strong acids and bases. The use of metallic
internal lightguides provides performance
stability and long term reliability.

Process ATR probe
Axiom Analytical’s new DPR-212 ATR
probe offers similar advantages to their
DPR-210 ATR probe but in a straight,
30-cm long configuration designed to
provide optical transmission of over
20%. The earlier DPR-210 includes a
right-angle joint which allows it to be
inserted vertically into a sample container
when mounted in a traditional spectrometer
sample compartment. In contrast,
the straight DPR-212 is ideal for use with
instruments such as the Bruker Alpha or
Thermo-Fisher iS Series which allow the
probe to point straight down out of the
sample compartment. When used with
a more traditional instrument, it can be
inserted into a sample vessel through a
suitable sealing fitting. In common with
the DPR-210, the new probe offers a
selection of interchangeable ATR materials,
such as ZnSe, ZnS, AMTIR-1 and
germanium.
