The Convenient FT-IR Spectroscopy Solution

ALPHA II

The ALPHA II is a compact FT-IR spectrometer with a footprint the size of a laptop. It is used for chemical analysis and enables you to do quality control, quantifications and verification of raw materials, intermediates and final product.

Intuitive design. Tailor-made.

Every time. Anywhere.

The compact infrared benchmark

Designed for Simplicity, Built for Every Lab Role

ALPHA II is engineered to make FT-IR spectroscopy as easy and convenient as using your mobile phone. Whether you’re verifying materials, performing routine checks, exploring new research, or ensuring compliance, ALPHA II supports your work with intuitive operation and dependable performance. These feats are possible thanks to our software OPUS TOUCH, offering an interface that is seamlessly integrated, providing direct access to essential workflows and contributing to the overall user-friendly experience.

ALPHA II BENEFITS

Quick Results with Minimal Setup

ALPHA II with OPUS TOUCH

Labs that require fast, consistent results benefit from ALPHA II’s streamlined design.

  • From selecting workflow to result in less than a minute
  • Reproducible data across users and batches
  • Durable components reduce maintenance and downtime

“Very nice and simple possibilities for the automated evaluation of spectra (e.g. spectra comparison and spectrum search of the OPUS software) are very important tools for the quality control of lubricants.” 

Bianka Beyerer group leader of the „Service Laboratory“ at Fuchs Schmierstoffe GmbH.

Compliance Embedded in Every Workflow

The ALPHA II is designed to meet global regulatory standards while simplifying validation and ensuring audit readiness.

Its advanced features include automated calibration and diagnostics for consistent performance as well as secure user profiles with complete audit trails for accountability.

With full compliance to 21 CFR Part 11, the ALPHA II guarantees data integrity. These capabilities make it an ideal solution for regulated environments, providing confidence in accuracy, security, and compliance throughout your analytical processes.
