Mini NIR Spectrometer for plant-floor Use 2010

Analyzer Resources
A new series of miniature near-infrared (NIR) spectrometers is said to offer a cost-effective tool for inspecting incoming raw materials and product quality control. Compact, battery-powered Model 5030 ATOF-NIR Portable Analyzer from Brimrose Corp. of America, Baltimore, allows laboratory tests to be performed anywhere in a plant environment. The instrument, which sells for $28,888 (compared with $88,888 for larger units), is reportedly insensitive to ambient light, vibration, dust, and dirt. Its design allows for quick switchover from solids to liquids, and results appear instantly on its LCD. Applications include material identification or measurement of moisture content and active-ingredient levels. Once the instrument is calibrated, it reportedly can be used by an inexperienced operator.

Infrared Analyzer, MIRAN SapphIRe


The MIRAN SapphIRe Series of Ambient Air Analyzers is the most versatile gas detection system on the market today.

The Analyzer's wavelength generator has a unique design that allows accurate and fast wavelength selection. This feature alone separates the MIRAN SapphIRe Analyzer from other gas analyzers.

The MIRAN SapphIRe Analyzer is available in three models with gas calibrations from one to over 100 gases. Any model can be easily upgraded to another model in the series, allowing you to economically meet both current requirements and future increased needs.

The MIRAN SapphIRe has the ability to identify unknown airborne compounds using the ThermoMatch software option. Designed with the needs of the industrial hygienist and emergency response community in mind, the analyzer can be brought to the incident resulting in quiker corrective action and less money expended on "blank" samples being analyzed at a lab.
