1. Introduction

Information Symbols 9

The Agilent Cary 630 FTIR is a small, mid-infrared spectrometer

designed to provide the capabilities of much larger, traditional FTIR

spectrometers, but without the complexity, maintenance requirements

or cost. The main optical unit dimensions are only 16 x 22 x

13 centimeters (6.3 x 8.7 x 5.1 in) and it weighs only 2.9 kilograms

(6.3 lb). The Cary 630 FTIR provides versatility for use in a traditional

analytical chemistry laboratory. The system is intended for indoor use

and is not designed for water-resistance or other extreme outdoor

conditions

WARNING

Fire Hazard

The Cary 630 FTIR systems are NOT intrinsically safe. Use the system only in

atmospheres that have been tested for flammable materials. If the equipment

is used in a manner not specified in this guide, the protection provided by the

equipment may be impaired.

Introduction

8 Agilent Cary 630 FTIR Spectrometer User’s Guide

The Cary 630 FTIR uses technology known as Fourier transform

infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, which is the current state-of-the-art

technique for molecular compound identification and quantification.

FTIR uses an infrared light source to pass through the sample and

onto a detector, which precisely measures the amount of light

absorbed by the sample. This absorbance creates a unique spectral

fingerprint that is used to identify the molecular structure of the

sample and determine the exact quantity of a particular compound in

a mixture. At the heart of the Cary 630 FTIR spectrometer is a unique

Michelson interferometer. This proprietary design is the key to making

FTIR technology compact, lightweight and rugged.

The Cary 630 FTIR is available in two configurations depending on the

frequency range necessary for your application. Please see the Cary

630 FTIR specifications for details.

In addition, a number of different sampling accessories are available

to suit various sample types and sensitivities. The accessories

accommodate the analysis of a range of liquids, powders, gases, pastes

and gels. They include:

Diamond ATR: For the chemical analysis of liquids, powders,

pastes and gels. The attenuated total reflectance (ATR) system is

available as a single-reflection (most common) ATR.

ZnSe ATR: For the chemical analysis of liquids, gels and soft

solids within a pH range of 5-9. The attenuated total reflectance

(ATR) system is available as a single-reflection ATR (most

common) and a multi-bounce ATR (Liquids only)

Transmission: A classic infrared sampling interface, allowing

measurement of solids, liquids and gases. A 50 mm slide-mount

gas cell is also available from Agilent.

TumblIR: Single pathlength transmission for rapid chemical

analysis of liquids under ambient conditions.

DialPath: For rapid chemical analysis of liquids under ambient

conditions, with three set pathlengths that allow you to choose the

sensitivity necessary for your analysis.

Diffuse Reflectance: For quantitative and qualitative

measurement of powdered and solid samples. Provides more

sensitive quantitative analysis than ATR, while still being easy to

use.

Introduction

Agilent Cary 630 FTIR Spectrometer User’s Guide 9

Germanium ATR: For measuring samples that are too highly

absorbing for diamond ATRs or for samples with high amounts of

carbon black.

10 degree Specular Reflectance: For measuring specular

reflectance of solid samples at near normal.

45 degree Specular Reflectance: For measuring specular

reflectance of solid samples at angle. This accessory is placed into

the transmission compartment.

The Cary 630 FTIR is computer-controlled using Agilent MicroLab PC

software. MicroLab PC is intuitive, simple to use and requires no

specialized technical training. With a click of the mouse, the system

provides valuable information about the identity and amount of

chemical substances present in a material.
