Visum NIR In-Line™ - In-line NIR analyzer

Real-time process NIR analyzer: accurate and continuous measurements for process optimisation and quality control in the plant.

Process NIR analyzer for real-time monitoring

Visum NIR In-Line™ is a versatile and accurate process NIR analyzer for real-time chemical composition analysis in production lines. It adapts to different geometries and types of installations (conveyor belt, pipeline, tank). It can also be integrated into process machinery (e.g. blenders and dryers).

Turnkey solutions

Installation of the Visum NIR In-Line™ process analyzer is fast and minimally invasive. As manufacturers and engineering we can adapt to different needs in terms of operating environment, inspection surface and calibrate the device according to the measurement needs. The Visum NIR In-Line™ analyzer has an embedded computer, network connection and Wi-Fi. Among its most popular applications are blending end-point monitoring, drying end-point monitoring, moisture in different bulk products and real-time brix analysis in fruits and derivatives, among many other applications to analyze different parameters and products in numerous industries.

Same NIR analyzer for multiple solutions

Blender

Visum NIR In-Line™ can be integrated into blenders and allows real-time monitoring of the blending process of pharmaceutical or nutraceutical powders to determine the end point of the process and ensure homogeneity of the blend. No calibration is required.

Conveyor belt

When it is necessary to monitor (%w/w) a continuous point of product flow on a conveyor belt. Embedded computer. Without filters. Electrical and mains connection. Incorporates blower, if necessary. HMI on request.

Pipeline

Continuous analysis of different parameters (%w/w) in pipelines. Monitoring through a sapphire window. Embedded computer. Without filters. Electrical and network connection. It introduces a spectrum acquisition system to facilitate calibration tasks for the user.

Probe

Integration to different processes through specific probes or optical interfaces for continuous and real-time monitoring. Our team of specialists can customize the installation according to customer needs and the technical requirements of the application. Classic diffuse reflectance, transflectance or transmission probes.
