Our NIR-O Analyzers: Process and Lab The NIR-O™ analyzer uses near infrared radiation (NIR) to collect spectral data from liquids, gases, and polymer-based films. The spectral data are interpreted by the analyzer software to determine the composition or physical characteristics of the material, all in real-time, and in challenging process environments. Two full spectrum NIR analyzers are available, process online or a bench top for offline lab measurements. A comprehensive system includes the NIR-O analyzer, one or more NIR probes, fiber optic cables, and scanning data analysis software....

Calibration Transfer Allows Flexible Uses Process chemists, engineers, and researchers will appreciate the LAB NIR-O’s flexibility to move from R&D testing, Pilot Plants, to full scale QC operations. In addition, the LAB NIR-O can be used for calibration development in support of a process NIR-O. A key aspect for NIR spectrometric method development involves the issue of calibration transfer between analyzers. This is important if you are developing a calibration on a laboratory unit for use on a process unit. NIR multivariate calibrations are often a challenge to transfer between analyzers...

SMS Provides Peace of Mind An important consideration for successful implementation of spectroscopic analyzers is the ability to continually validate the performance of the analyzer system's hardware components. The Stability Monitoring System (SMS) is internal to the LAB NIR-O and includes hardware and software to perform analyzer validation according to ASTM methodology. A fiber optic jumper cable must be installed on channel 6 of the LAB NIR-O for the SMS to operate. Analyzer Performance Tests This topic is addressed in ASTM practice D-6122191 under instrument performance tests. The ASTM...

SMS Validation Detects Changes in Performance The performance tests identified in the ASTM practice are diagnostics that can be used to detect changes in analyzer performance. This validation provides assurance that the measurement produced by the analyzer is a result of equipment that is operating properly. Since this is a hands-off procedure, it can be conducted in the background with no human intervention. The validation is done with an internal filter having a characteristic spectral signature. There are no liquids or other external sampling modes that are necessary. Tests Implemented...

Cuvette Holder Types We offer two styles of cuvette holder. The first is a traditional single cuvette holder with an optional removable filter holder for easy system validation. The second style is the customizable triple cuvette. Designed as a single unit it can accept up to three cuvettes simultaneously, the triple cuvette holder is made to order. At the time of quotation, the required pathlengths for each of the slots is defined. This customizable design allows the holder to be compatible with standard NIR or UV cuvettes and disposal plastic cuvettes. If HPLC vials or other vial types...
