Thermo Scientific TruNarc Handheld Analyzer

Thermo Scientific TruNarc Handheld Analyzer

Thermo Scientific TruNarc Handheld Analyzer are based on Raman spectroscopy, a highly selective method with excellent suitability for identifying chemicals. As an optical analysis method, Raman spectroscopy does not require direct contact with the substance being analyzed. A Raman device emits light of a single wavelength through the translucent vessel wall and receives the light scattered back from the substance. This signal is characteristic of the contents – similar to a fingerprint – as the measuring point is inside the vessel. The signal from the vessel contents is then compared with a predefined hazard list or a complete chemical library on the device.

Highlights

Developed for rapid drug screening.
Small lightweight and easy to use.
Detects more than 500 drugs, precursors and blends. The database can be expanded and adapted to new drugs by the manufacturer.
Eliminates the difficulty of deciding on the spot which color test might be appropriate for this substance.
The device creates detailed documentation of the measurement results. This helps to produce reliable reports on use and evidence.
Measures non-destructively. This means that the evidence is completely preserved.
Measures contactlessly through sealed, clear, transparent vessels and plastic containers: no need to open. No risk to emergency services or the environment.
The clear results. No further interpretation required.
