NIRA - Near Infrared Reflectance Accessory for High Precision FT-NIR Analysis
The NIRA (Near Infrared Reflectance Accessory) is an intelligent sampling system designed to perform diffuse reflectance measurements on a wide range of materials, including light-scattering solids, liquids and powders. Used in conjunction with the Frontier FT-NIR or FT-IR/NIR spectrometer, the NIRA enables fast and accurate analysis without complex sample preparation. This accessory integrates directly into the Frontier's sample compartment, providing a versatile solution for a wide range of analytical applications.
The NIRA is particularly suitable for identifying raw materials, determining nutritional quality and food adulteration, as well as for quantitative analysis of liquid or solid industrial samples. Thanks to its self-referencing design, it ensures increased reproducibility and ease of use, making FT-NIR analysis more accessible and reliable.
One of the main advantages of the NIRA is its ability to analyse samples with minimal or no preparation. It is compatible with a variety of containers, ranging from plastic vials and bags to blister packs and original packaging materials. In addition, the NIRA can be used with optional accessories such as the sample spinner for inhomogeneous solid or liquid samples, further increasing its versatility.
The NIRA is designed to fit seamlessly into the Frontier's sample compartment, becoming an integral part of the system once locked into place. It can be removed and replaced in seconds using a quick-release lever, with automatic parameter configuration, saving time and improving laboratory efficiency.
The NIRA is an essential accessory for any laboratory looking to optimise its FT-NIR analyses. Its intelligent design, compatibility with a range of optional accessories and ease of use make it a valuable tool for a variety of analytical applications.
