The Golden Gate™ is the world’s most versatile Infrared sampling system. It analyzes all types of samples, from hard solids to corrosive liquids, and it is easy to use, sensitive, and robust.
Golden GateTM Diamond ATR
Outstanding sensitivity is achieved using high pressure contact against a solid, type IIIa diamond, selected for its unparalleled sensitivity as a single reflection ATR element together with its unique physical and chemical stability. The accessory can be used to analyze a range of samples from single particles and fibers to corrosive liquids. While the large working area sample platform is ideal for macro sampling. The diamond is high temperature bonded into its tungsten carbide mount, giving performance and strength to withstand the high pressures required for maximum optical contact with hard samples.
The quick lock and release bridge allows for fast sample change around. The built-in pressure control mechanism means reproducible results are obtainable and optimum sample clamping is achieved.
