EP-IR analyser wins R+D 100 award
Aspectrics's EP-IR multicomponent analyser has been named by R+D Magazine as one of the Top 100 most technologically significant products introduced into the marketplace over the past year
"While the details of individual clients and their particular agreements remain confidential, the shipments represent the first of what could potentially be substantial future orders for dozens of EP-IR units.
"The chemical company for example, is evaluating the unit as an online process monitor to eventually replace eighty FT-IR process monitors".
Applications under development by Aspectrics's OEM customers include ambient air and stack gas monitoring, engine emission analysis, foods and semiconductor processes.
At the heart of the EP-IR analyser is a rotating disc onto which up to 256 concentric encoding tracks is formed.
The encoding tracks enable very accurate intensity measurements and are sensitive enough to replace conventional detector arrays such as NDIR and FTIR currently used in many process control monitoring instruments.
Founded in 2000 and based in Pleasanton, California, Aspectrics supplies encoded photometric infrared spectroscopy (EP-IR) analysers to OEMs supplying detector instrumentation to chemical, pharmaceutical, biomedical, and automotive markets.
Aspectrics holds four US patents for its encoding disc technology and associated optics. Request free introductory details about products from Aspectrics ...
