Discover. Develop. Pioneer.
The INVENIO is dedicated to research. Features like MultiTectTM, RockSolidTM interferometer or INTEGRALTM interferometer with automatic beamsplitter changer, Bruker FM, Rapid Scan, Step Scan, interleaved TRS and of course the TransitTM channel, let you conduct an outstanding FT-IR analysis.
Unique & exciting: MultiTectTM
The INVENIO features a unique detector technology for up to five automated room temperature or thermostabilized detector elements. This makes it possible to cover the whole spectral range from 80 cm-1 to 6000 cm-1 or 4000 cm-1 to 28000 cm-1 without any hardware change. Together with the additional DigiTectTM slot (e.g. for LN2 cooled detectors) and the dedicated TransitTM detector this allows for up to seven internal detectors.
Bruker FM: invaluable
Uninterrupted, self-explanatory, straightforward: That‘s Bruker FM. Cover the entire MIR and FIR spectral range from 80 cm-1 to 6000 cm-1 in one experiment, and make the laborious change of optical components and merging of spectra a relic of the past.
Effortless Precision: INTEGRALTM Interferometer
The novel, wear-free INTEGRALTM interferometer featuring an automatic 3-position beam splitter (BMS) changer is the perfect counterpart to Bruker’s MultiTectTM technology. Together with MultiTectTM and software-controlled source options the entire spectral range from FIR to VIS/UV can be covered fully automated, with no need to manually exchange any optical component.
A look at time-resolved methods
Time-resolved techniques such as Step-Scan, Rapid-Scan or Bruker‘s exclusive interleaved TRS are key to studying and elucidating fast kinetic processes. Use Rapid-Scan and gain deeper insight into e.g. chemical reactions in solutions or utilize Step-Scan to go down to the low nanosecond range for reproducible experiments and leave almost no question unanswered.
Unmatched system intelligence & countless extensions
Let your FT-IR analysis benefit from smart features such as electronically coded windows, internal attenuator wheel, emission bypass, 8x validation wheel and optional touch operation. Upvalue INVENIO with almost any extension such as microscope, Raman or PL module, TGA coupling, external sample compartments and many more.

Specifications
Technical Details
The INVENIO is packed with fascinating innovations. We believe the INVENIO is the universal solution to the most analytical problems, may they be industrial or purely scientific.
Steadfast interferometer
The RockSolidTM interferometer is permanently aligned and resistant to vibration or thermal effects. Its wear-free pivot mechanism and high throughput design guarantee exceptional sensitivity, stability and reliability even in harsh environments.
Reliable sources
CenterGlowTM is a Bruker technology that manages the source’s wearout and therefore assures optimum performance and prolongs its lifetime. Furthermore, two internal source positions and two external input ports are available, both using the internal aperture wheel.
Highest degree of automation - INTEGRALTM
Reliability and comfort. The innovative INTEGRALTM interferometer benefits from highly accurate cube-corner mirrors and an actively aligned smooth running BMS changer wheel with perfectly reproducible beamsplitter insertion. Combining the 5x MultiTectTM detector technology, the DigiTectTM detector position and the multiple source options, the complete spectral range from 28,000 cm-1 down to 15 cm-1 can be covered with optimum performance, without manually changing any optical components. A wide variety of beamsplitters for the whole spectral range is available, such as KBr, CaF2, quartz, Multilayer, Mylar and silicon solid state BMS.
MultiTectTM technology allows for 5 room temperature or thermostabilized detectors such as DTGS, InGaAs, Si diode and GaP. Additionally, the DigiTectTM slot allows for the use of e.g. LN2 cooled detectors. The MultiTectTM unit is software controlled and gives automated access to FIR, NIR and VIS/UV measurement.
Anytime upgradeability
Every optional feature of the INVENIO can also be retrofitted later if your analytical needs change and you require new spectroscopic capabilities.
