Liquid Material Verification

From Wilks Enterprise, Inc.
 

 
Large manufacturing facilities often get truck or railcar loads of different liquid materials. With an InfraSpec VFA-IR Spectrometer, samples can be analyzed at remote locations without having to bring samples to a centralized laboratory and delaying the off-loading of raw material. Problems can be caught before they become expensive errors. Because many materials have characteristic absorbances in the mid infrared range, stored spectra of expected materials can be used for verification of incoming liquid materials. The InfraSpec VFA-IR Spectrometer is a light weight, rugged and portable solution to on-site applications at a much lower cost than an FTIR. The InfraSpec brings the measurement out of the laboratory to where it is needed, in the production area, on a loading dock or in a warehouse.
