Multi-Component NIR Process Analyzer

The KJT550 is an on-line component analyzer targeted for customers requiring compositional analysis at affordable prices. It utilizes Near-Infrared (NIR) technology to provide instant, non-contact, non-destructive testing on most liquids and solids.

The analyzer utilizes a "smart head" design that integrates calibration and memory storage, measurement display, and process I/O within the sensor head itself. This design principle allows the user to utilize stand-alone sensors, eliminating the need for controllers, separate I/O and display modules. Users can calibrate a system in one location and ship fully calibrated and certified sensors to plants worldwide.

With these features, the KJT550 allows customers to measure moisture, fat/oil, protein, ethanol, and other organic substances on a moving process, such as a conveyor, pneumatic transport, or in a process vessel during formulation, granulation, or homogenization. Industry-specific applications include: composition analysis for grain processors and pharmaceutical manufacturers, coatweight and basis weight in paper mills or web-based polymer plants, BTU content of coal and other fuels, and instant product identification/discrimination.

The systems can be networked with existing company measurement devices, as the RS485 protocol is consistent across the company product line. Investment in installation and training is protected as the KJT550 utilizes the same wiring and measurement/calibration software as the standard KJT350 and KJT30 moisture meters. An optional 3-Com Palm Pilot allows easy adjustment, calibration checks and maintenance of both networked and stand-alone systems.
