1.1 Instrument description
The NIRS DS2500 Analyzer is a compact measuring instrument for reflec-
tion measurement in the near-infrared wavelength range. The polychro-
matic light is dispersed by the monochromator built into the NIRS DS2500
Analyzer into monochromatic wavelengths before striking the sample. This
reduces sample heating. The instrument operates in the range from 400
to 2,500 nm.
The NIRS DS2500 Analyzer is designed for quality monitoring in produc-
tion processes and can be applied for the following purposes:
￭ Quick and non-destructive incoming goods inspection of raw materials
￭ Production process monitoring
￭ Final inspection of finished products
The NIRS DS2500 Analyzer can be used to measure the following sample
types:
￭ Solid samples: powders or granulated substances
￭ Liquid samples: liquids or suspensions
The NIRS DS2500 Analyzer is a robust instrument that is resistant to mois-
ture, dust, vibrations and temperature fluctuations. As a result, it can be
operated in a variety of production facilities.
The NIRS DS2500 Analyzer is operated with the Vision software via an
external computer.
