FlowIR is said to be one of the smallest Fourier transform, infrared (FTIR) instruments on the market. The seamless integration of FlowIR into just about any flow-chemistry synthesis system is possible, with no special connections required. The instrument enables realtime chemistry monitoring at any point along a reaction chain. Multiple units along the reaction path in multistep synthesis setups provide critical information to allow continuous adjustment of the reaction and enhanced control over potentially volatile reactions. Data gathering instruments can connect to the device via Ethernet TCP/IP connectors. — Mettler Toledo AutoChem, Inc., Schwerzenbach, Switzerland
