Thermo Scientific TruScan RM Handheld Raman Analyzer

The Thermo Scientific TruScan RM is a handheld Raman analyzer for fast reliable material identity verification right where the material is even through sealed packaging. It was designed for pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturers who must confirm the quality of materials from incoming raw material through to finished product. Its non destructive point and shoot sampling lets operators check a wide range of chemical compounds including cellulose based products in seconds.

Key Features

Identity verification through packaging: confirms materials through sealed containers in seconds reducing sampling and handling
Point and shoot non destructive sampling: no sample preparation with the material left intact
Patented multivariate residual analysis: an effective chemometric method for material identification with two spectral pre processing options
785 nm laser: 250 mW (±25 mW) output with a Raman spectral range of 250 to 2875 cm⁻¹
Compliance-ready software: enhanced 21 CFR Part 11 and cGMP support including biometric login complex password options and full audit trail features
Pharmacopeia compliance: meets EP Chapter 2.2.48 and USP Chapter 1120 for Raman spectroscopy
Lightweight and portable: under 0.9 kg (2 lb), measuring about 20.8 × 10.7 × 4.3 cm
Rugged design: chemical and drop resistant with an operating temperature of -20 to +40 °C
Laser safety: Class IIIb under the FDA CDRH classification system
Flexible power: runs from a DC wall adapter at 100 to 240 V AC 50/60 Hz
Optional TruTools chemometrics package: build advanced customized qualitative and quantitative methods for complex material analysis and deploy them directly on the analyzer

Typical Applications

Incoming raw material identification in pharmaceutical manufacturing
Warehouse and dock verification of materials in sealed bags and containers
Finished product and excipient checks
Biotechnology and cGMP regulated environments
Cellulose based and other challenging materials

Why Choose It

The TruScan RM puts laboratory grade identification in the hands of operators at the point of need. Testing through sealed packaging speeds up release of materials and reduces contamination risk while the compliance focused software and audit trail features help support regulated workflows.
