Continuous Measurement and control to assure food quality

Nir-6100 food-grade analyzer

The amount of moisture in food and base ingredients is vital to consistent quality standards, shelf life and consumer satisfaction. Food processors are also challenged with meeting quality standards and producing end products faster, all while striving to maintain sanitary plant conditions and to meet regulatory compliance requirements.

The NIR–6100 Food-Grade Analyzers was developed for applications in which food-grade standards are required. The #316 stainless-steel surface provides hygienic and additional protection from corrosion and largely eliminates the risk of abrasion and issues related to the porous nature of standard metallic enclosures. Its IP67 rating allows for rigorous wash-downs, and promotes a high level of protection from contamination and other hazards typically associated with food processing.

The non-contact characteristic of Sensortech’s IR Series reinforces your processes’ standard of cleanliness and hygiene while maximizing productivity by reducing downtime with its maintenance-free operation. The NIR-6100 Food-Grade Analyzer bridges the gap between productivity and health code compliance.

Outstanding features

Engineered for In-process Performance

Innovative Optical Design
The NIR-6100 Food-Grade Analyzer optical design provides a foundation of measurement stability and reliability. High precision tolerances of machined parts and alignment of optical components ensure optimal performance.
Single-Point, Dual-Purpose Detector
The long established Quadrabeam Principle combines the measurement light path and the direct (prime) light path onto a single detector eliminating variations due to aging and operating temperature more effectively than expansive matched dual detector products. The large surface area detector (10mm sq.) minimizes error due to product height variation.
Collimated Energy Source
Effective use of power dramatically increases optical efficiency enabling the instrument to run significantly cooler. The reduced operating temperature inherently reduces stress on electronics and power supplies, increases the life of the instrument and further reduces costs associated with added temperature conditioning.
Optimized Electronic Signal Conditioning
Oversampling, 16-bit resolution and multiple-level digital filtering minimize
