Supply of FTIR Spectrometer to Health and Safety Laboratory
Awarded 01 Mar 2016
About
The Health & Safety Executive awarded a contract to PerkinElmer LAS (UK) Ltd for the supply of a Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) spectrometer for the Health and Safety Laboratory (HSL).
The instrument is used for quantitative analysis of respirable crystalline silica (RCS), particularly quartz, as well as polymers, solid organic materials, and oils, and for quality assurance testing of proficiency testing samples of respirable quartz, requiring analysis of replicate batches of up to 100 samples with a coefficient of variation of 3% or less.
The spectrometer was required to support diffuse reflectance and attenuated total reflectance (ATR) techniques, with flexibility for future techniques such as microscopy or remote probes, and to have a spectral range of 370–7800 cm-1, maximum resolution of 0.2 cm-1, a sample compartment similar to the existing 19 cm width, a footprint of no more than 80 cm × 80 cm, and PC control compatible with Windows operating systems.
The contract value was £29,503.94.
