Responder RCI - Raman Spectrometer CHEMICAL IDENTIFIER BASED ON RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY

Features

Raman technology is ideal for detecting a wide range of chemicals, including energetic materials
The database contains approximately 16,500 spectra
Can analyze substances sealed in plastic or glass
Can recognize a wide variety of chemicals, including aqueous solutions
Can determine the composition of mixtures in combination with FTIR

RespondeR RCI (Raman Chemical Identifier) ​​is a lightweight, portable spectrometer for detecting solid and liquid substances such as explosives, white powders, weapons of mass destruction (WMD), and toxic industrial chemicals (TIC).

The device has the ability to place samples in a built-in compartment. It is also possible to point the device at the objects to be analyzed and conduct analysis without direct contact with the samples.

RespondeR RCI is waterproof and has increased durability. It is easy to operate and features an integrated touchscreen computer.

Raman technology is often used for on-site confirmation of FT-IR chemical analysis results. Spectra from the RespondeR RCI can be wirelessly transmitted to the HazMatlD™ FT-IR Chemical Identifier or to an external laptop computer for processing of the information obtained by these complementary technologies.

The RespondeR RCI is accompanied by world-class service and training to ensure optimum performance.

Smiths Detection is a leading global provider of advanced security solutions. Designed with regulatory compliance in mind, the company offers equipment for the detection and identification of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, explosives and other hazardous or restricted materials.
