Value
Produce closer to target specifications to reduce rework and customer claims. Segregate better to optimise use of raw materials and get alerts when production is out of spec.
Sample type
Feed, feed ingredients or dry pet food at various points in the process.
Parameters
Protein, fat and moisture
Features
Easy maintenance with double window system
Measurements are based on the latest in NIR reflectance technology for process applications including a robust sensor with a double window system.
The window into the process pipe always remains in place while the second can be removed for service work on the sensor without interruption to the process operations.
Performance validation reduces the risk of error
Performance validation allows you to validate ProFoss™ 2 predictions using a FOSS benchtop analyser such as NIRS™ DS3 F as reference, without any manual entry of data.
Samples are measured and registered by the ProFoss™ 2 and benchtop analyser respectively to reduce the risk of error and secure optimal performance. Using integration, connectivity and automation the results matched are saved via cloud and are ready for evaluation and reporting using digital services.
Trend Analysis
ProFoss™ 2 allows you to do direct measurements in the process line, thereby effectively avoiding sampling errors and sample preparation errors. The results are shown in an intuitive graphical display, making it easy to spot variations. Because ProFoss™ 2 is measuring every few seconds it gives a reliable picture of what is going on in the process.
High resolution near infrared technology
High resolution diode array technology ensures accurate and continuous analysis, giving you a clearer picture of your process. A high number of pixels (diode sensors) in the spectrum secures a more detailed (accurate) and uniform (repeatable) analysis result.
