Bio-Rad Laboratories FTS-7 Spectrometer

Bio-Rad FTS-7 FT-IR Spectrometer is a Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) instrument used for infrared spectral analysis to identify materials and study chemical bonds through absorption measurements. It runs on 110 VAC, 60 Hz, drawing about 4 A, a power profile compatible with standard laboratory outlets. This model appears in professional catalogs and refurbishment listings as the Bio-Rad FTS-7 FT-IR Spectrometer, reflecting its place in Bio-Rad’s line of infrared spectroscopy instruments. The FTS-7 acquires infrared spectra that reveal functional groups and molecular structure by measuring how samples absorb infrared radiation, enabling characterization of solids and films and supporting a wide range of research and quality-control workflows. By providing spectral fingerprints, the instrument helps researchers compare samples against reference libraries and verify material composition, making it suitable for labs in chemistry, materials science, and related fields.
