Identify a broad range of unknown chemicals and explosives in the field using FTIR and Raman spectroscopy in a single instrument, including low concentration analysis. The rugged, compact Thermo Scientific™ Gemini™ analyzer meets the demanding requirements of elite military and public safety forces, helping operators execute their mission quickly, safely, and accurately.
The Gemini Analyzer is the first and only integrated Raman and FTIR handheld instrument in the world, providing complementary and confirmatory testing in a single, field-portable device.
Better, faster decision making
- Lightweight and compact, ideal for chemical battalions, explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) technicians and other first responders burdened with heavy equipment.
- Virtual mixture analysis and interactive problem solving on scene with HazMasterG3.
- Includes 24/7 reachback support with access to Ph.D. spectroscopists for spectral analysis and operational inquiries.
Increased confidence in results
- Leverages both Raman and FTIR technology to address a broader range of samples than either technique alone.
- Identifies unknown solids and liquids, from explosives and chemical warfare agents to industrial chemicals and precursors using a comprehensive onboard library.
- Builds on the field-proven performance of Thermo Scientific™ FirstDefender™ and Thermo Scientific™ TruDefender™ Analyzers.
Safer Operation
- Includes a motorized anvil which adjusts sample pressure based on user settings.
- Features Raman and FTIR Scan Delay to allow users to leave the hazard zone before initiating a scan.
Easier to use, enhanced efficiency
- Guides the operator through technology selection and sampling with Scan Assist.
- Customizable Profiles allow the operator to set scan parameters based on the sample, scenario, and their situational awareness
- Minimizes user error and eliminates subjective user interpretation.
- Requires minimal training for proficiency.
