An innovative spectrometer concept from Endress+Hauser (Switzerland) has won an R&D 100 Award from a distinguished jury from American R&D Magazine honoured the midinfrared spectrometer with R&D 100 innovation
award, the spectrometer was judged one of the 100 most technologically significant products over the last year.
Inline MIR spectroscopy offers continuous monitoring of the concentration of liquids which consist of several components to ensure efficient process control. The MIR spectrometer from Endress+Hauser provides a concept which is unique in every respect. As the first processsuitable spectrometer, it can be directly connected to the process via standard retractable assemblies and can be easily and effectively cleaned. Simple to operate, the MIR spectrometer determines
concentrations quickly and precisely and can even be used in hazardous area applications.
The MIR spectrometer was developed in cooperation with Bayer Technology Services GmbH (BTS). The strategic partnership with Endress+Hauser reflects the growing need in the chemicals industry to optimize roduction processes in terms of performance, safety, cost and quality using online analysis measurement.
In addition to the MIR spectrometer, Endress+Hauser has also won several
international awards and prizes for innovation for its Memosens technology. Memosens is the world`s first non-contact sensor system offering interference-free transmission of measured values.
The digital sensor`s re-calibration possibilities and extended lifetime provides new cost-saving concepts in terms of maintenance requirements.
