5b. Specialty Chemicals & Bio-Technologies (SCBT): SCBT: Bruker, FT-NIR, MATRIX-F

What is it?
FT-NIR spectrometer is used to collect NIR spectra of samples

Manufacturer: Bruker

Model Name: MATRIX-F

Applications: concentration measurement

Instrument Overview: The MATRIX-F is the only FT-NIR spectrometer which can measure material in contact as well as contactless with just one instrument using light fiber techfalselogy: Fiber Optic Probes: Classic diffuse reflectance, transflectance or transmission probes with various path lengths can be adopted as well as process flow cells or pilot plant assemblies. Various probe materials are available, like stainless steel or Hastelloy. Heads for Contactless Measurements: The fiber optic NIR illumination and detection head contains tungsten sources which illuminate the sample. The scattered light is collected and guided via a fiber optic cable to the spectrometer. This way, a contactless measurement can be performed remotely, opening a whole array of new applications. Up to six heads can be connected to one MATRIX-F emission or MATRIX-F duplex spectrometer.

Technical features and specifications:
The MATRIX-F is a dedicated FT-NIR process spectrometer that can directly withstand harsh environments. This instrument uses state-of-the-art optics for outstanding sensitivity and stability in a compact module. Its infalsevative design provides consistent high quality results, less downtime, direct methods transfer and the possibility of new applications that less sensitive and precise instruments are incapable of. Full support of industry standard communication protocols guarantee an easy integration. The MATRIX-F can also be installed in the laboratory as a stand-alone system for method development and then move directly into your process application. It is available as a free-standing unit with NEMA 4/IP66 (splashproof) housing, but can also be mounted in a standard 19 inch rack in a temperature controlled cabinet. The MATRIX-F can be equipped with a 6 port fiber optic multiplexer.
