The Omni-Cellâ„¢ is a demountable system for transmission measurements of liquids, pastes, and mulls. A wide range of window materials are available to cover spectral ranges from the UV to the Far-IR and THz ranges. The Omni-Cell is comprised of a cell body and window assembly. For a complete cell both parts must be ordered individually. For demountable and mull cells spacers are also usually required. If required, a single body can be used with multiple window options for a range of different applications.
