FAQ’s
The Omni-Cell 8 is used for assembling liquid sample transmission cells for infrared transmission spectroscopy, enabling molecular absorbance analysis in the mid-IR region. It supports neat (undiluted), solvent-diluted, and viscous mull-paste sampling modes, making it suitable for routine FT-IR and dispersive IR liquid characterization.
Spectrolab Systems is the authorized importer and distributor for Specac in India, supplying genuine Omni-Cell 8 liquid cells with local technical coordination, sampling configuration guidance, commissioning support, and reliable after-sales service for Indian laboratories.
Yes. The Omni-Cell 8 accepts windows and spacers that are compatible with older Specac liquid cells, and it integrates with both modern FT-IR spectrometers and legacy dispersive IR platforms without alignment or consumable compatibility issues.
Yes. A single Omni-Cell 8 assembly supports demountable liquid mode, permanently sealed mode, and mull-paste mode for semi-liquid or viscous samples, providing multi-workflow flexibility.
Selection depends on spectral range, chemical compatibility, solvent resistance, hardness, hygroscopic behavior, and mechanical durability. Spectrolab Systems provides configuration guidance and accessory compatibility mapping. Laboratories requiring compatible press-based sample workflows can also explore the Atlas Power Press series supplied by Spectrolab Systems for integrated IR sampling ecosystems.
