SAMPLE SYSTEM ADAPTORS FOR NICOLET F-T RAMAN
SPECTROMETERS
- SERIES A

A-11 Adaptor

NICOLET SAMPLE HOLDING
ADAPTOR

The Nicolet sample mounting system is unique and is based on a stage drilled with three 1/8" diameter vertical holes. Several Ventacon cells can be accommodated directly into this system eg. the Model SR-1 Sample Rotator and the Model C-1 Cryogenic Cell.

For customers who wish to purchase other cells from the Ventacon range, we recommend use of Adaptor A-11. This device fits directly into the Nicolet three-hole stage but accepts the industry standard 3" x 2" ‘infrared cards’. Once installed, infrared accessories will then fit your Raman instrument and also enable you to accommodate the Series H hot cells and the Series S special sample cells.

Where sample heating is a problem, the use of KBr pellets or nujol mulls pressed between potassium chloride/bromide windows is recommended. You can examine the same sample in the mid-infrared and the Raman if you have the Ventacon adaptor. [For details see Y.D. West Int.J.Vib.Spect.,[www.ijvs.com] 1, 1, 5 (1996) and P.J. Hendra, Int. J. Vib. Spect., [www.ijvs.com] 4, 3, 2 (2000) ].

LIGHT TRAPS FOR NICOLET F-T RAMAN SPECTROMETERS

ALL VENTACON ACCESSORIES OPERATE WITH THE SAMPLE CHAMBER CLOSED AND WITH NICOLET'S INTERLOCKS OPERATIVE.

Nicolet do not provide, as standard, facilities to take cables or tubes from inside the Raman sample chamber to the laboratory outside but they do provide a 2¼"aperture plugged with a metal obstruction.
