Technology

Easy Maintenance

Measurements are based on the latest in NIR reflectance technology for process applications including a robust sensor with a double window system. The first window showcasing the inside of the process pipe remains while the second can be removed for easy maintenance on the sensor without interrupting the process operations.

Performance validation

Registering and measuring samples by the ProFoss 2 and a bench top analyser (FoodScan 2 or NIRS DS3) reduces 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
