The SpectraAlyzer grain is a Near-InfraRed spectrometer which is dedicated to analyze the composition of samples using the near infrared absorbance characteristics of the sample spectra. It is suitable for the compositional analysis of a wide variety of food products like grains, cereals, oil seeds and flour. All possible parameters of e.g. grain products, such as protein, moisture, oil, ash, hardness and water absorption can be analyzed simultaneously.

The sample is top filled directly into the sample cell of the SpectraAlyzer grain, there is no need for grinding or other sample preparation at all. The sample will be fed through the sample chamber via a robust feeding device and automatically discharged. In order to analyze powder samples e.g. wheat flour an optional accessory is available. Each analyzer can be fitted with a test weight module (Bushel weight, hectolitre weight). An automatic path length adjustment enables the user to quickly analyse a multitude of whole grain samples. 

The instrument is controlled with an easy-to-use icon driven software, using a modern interface glass panel slider called COS “Central Operation Slider”, and a color TFT display with 640x480 pixels. The innovative graphical user interface and its functions has a similar operability as e.g. the AppIe IPOD®. The user interface is made out of glass for easy hygienic cleaning and years of maintenance free operation.

The SpectraAlyzer basic/premium is a fast and compact Near Infrared analyzer for production monitoring and quality control of raw materials and finished products. It enables the simultaneous determination of properties such as moisture, protein, sugar, alcohol, oil content in food, the production monitoring of fat, moisture, crude fiber, starch, and protein content in the feed industry (green feed, feed raw materials, mixed feed)and much much more.....

If the SpectraAlyzer shall be used for the measurement of properties in inhomogeneous products such as cocoa-beans, peas, animal feed pellets or whole grain the Rotating Sample Drawer is available.

It is a rotating sample cup with electronic drive mechanism and a controller integrated into the drawer unit. Dedicated for applications with non-homogeneous products such as protein, fat and moisture determination in grain, corn, rice, cocoa-beans, peas, soy beans or animal feed pellets. The SpectraAlyzer can be upgraded with the Rotating Cup Drawer to enhance its field of applications.
For coarse samples (e.g. cocoa beans, rice, wheat).
Adapter for standard Closed and Open Cups included.
The SpectraAlyzer can be easily retrofitted with a Rotating Cup Drawer.

For the sample presentation of powders and granulated samples of small particle size, ZEUTEC offers the Closed Cup that allows the easy filling and uniform/compact presentation of the sample. The Closed Cup is used for milk powder, flour, sugar, starch and others. Material: polymer, black

The Accessory Kit contains useful tools and a variety of sample cups which make sample presentation and handling an easy task. The kit contains both Open and Closed Cups that help present granular and powdery samples to the SpectraAlyzer. To optimize the filling of the Closed Cups a most helpful filling tray and a spatula are included. A brush as part of the kit simplifies the repeated cleaning of the Closed Cups. The Open Cups included are most suitable for the presentation of pasty products like chocolate or sausage meat to the SpectraAlyzer optics. Additionally, some essential spare parts (air filters and fuses) are included. All accessories included in the Accessory Kit are available separately as well.

The Terminal Interface Package (TIP) broadens the functionality of the SpectraAlyzer. With this interface option enabled, the measured results can be put out over one of the SpectraAlyzer ports (RS232 or USB) to a PC-resident terminal-program. The data can now be saved easily and processed e.g. in a spreadsheet program. Additionally 4000 measured results can be stored as "Analysis History" on the memory card. Furthermore the TIP contains a "Calibration Archive" that provides 50 start-up calibrations stored on the memory card.

See brochure for calibrations included.

This printer for SpectraAlyzer instruments prints single multi-component measurement results for quick archiving or info. Time and date stamps are included in the printout as well as property names.

Bluetooth Extension for the SpectraAlyzer.

This extension enables a wireless serial communication of SpectraAylzer instruments with remote computers over a distance of up to 100 m.

The SpectraAlyzer is a powerful and versatile tool for NIR analysis that works well without any PC support. But in order to embrace the full wealth of NIR spectroscopy it is necessary to tap into the additional processing power and storage capability of a PC. This is exactly where the Application worx software enters the scene. It connects to your SpectraAlyzer using RS232, USB or Bluetooth. The Explorer-like user interface is intuitively and easy to navigate, especially compared to other chemometric software packages. Each of the tasks of acquiring spectra, designing and tweaking calibrations and finally doing a predictive quantitative analysis is neatly encapsulated and presented in a separate wizard. And of course Application worx speaks your language: we strive to translate it into every tongue our customers speak!

Besides all common spectral data pre-processing, implemented multi variate chemometric algorithms e.g. Multi Linear Regression (MLR) and Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) models can be calculated and easily interpreted graphic images are generated.
