IR analyzer BLUE SUN Phoenix 6000
Infrared analyzers BLUE SUN Phoenix 5000 / 6000 Top Window are designed for express measurement of moisture content, protein content, fat content, dietary fiber, ash content, starch content and other parameters in whole grain and seeds of cereals, legumes, oilseeds, their processed products, as well as in compound feed and various food products.
Whole grain: corn, wheat, barley, rice, peas, lentils, soybeans, sunflower (ground), rapeseed / canola.
The operating principle of the analyzer is based on the measurement by the detector of the amount of infrared light in a certain range (spectrum) of wavelengths specified by the monochromator after its partial absorption by the sample of the analyzed product. The amount of light absorbed by the sample at different wavelengths is directly related to the concentration of chemical functional groups, such as C-H, O-H and N-H. Since the concentrations of functional groups are related to the concentration of chemical substances (water, protein, fat, fiber, etc.), it becomes possible to determine the content of these substances based on pre-established calibrations of the absorption spectra of similar product samples with reference values of quality indicators.
Refers to full-scan spectrometers with a diffraction grating, operating in the wavelength range: 1100-2500 nm – for the Phoenix 5000 model; 600-2500 nm – for the Phoenix 6000 model.
