Pulsar
The Pulsar is a 60 MHz proton (1H) NMR spectrometer. The permanent magnet design provides a high performance, compact and robust instrument that can fit fits on a typical chemistry workbench. A typical sample gives a good quality spectrum within a few seconds. Pulsar is suited to an applied research environment, to near-line in an industrial production area.
