Diamond ATR Touch Probe

Main features:

  • Flat-tip ATR Crystal
  • Non-damaging to sensitive samples (e.g., skin)
  • Easy-to-clean design
  • Suitable for sticky/messy samples

The innovative design of the Diamond ATR “Touch Probe” features a flat-tip, making it exceptionally suitable for tactile analysis of both solid and liquid samples. This probe stands out for its ease of cleaning, a significant advantage in handling various substances.

The probe’s unique flat-tip ATR crystal is delicately crafted to interact with sensitive materials such as skin, resins, or polymers, ensuring that they are not damaged during measurement. This aspect is particularly useful when dealing with messy or sticky samples like syrups, glues, or pastes, as the flat surface of the ATR crystal allows for straightforward cleaning.

When comparing the flat-tip ATR probes to their conical counterparts, the flat-tip design shows a clear advantage. It maintains a consistent and stable surface contact with both solid and semi-solid samples. This stability is crucial for achieving reliable and reproducible results, providing users with precise quantitative data about their samples. The flat-tip design’s ability to ensure uniform contact with the sample surface is a key factor in its superior performance in sample analysis.
