Paul Salsgiver, president and CEO, Aspectrics says: "Recognition by the R+D 100 award panel for the EP-IR multicomponent analyser performance is testament to our technological expertise and our focus on delivering the most powerful analytical solutions that make a real difference in many real-time process applications for our customers".
"The R+D 100 Award is an important milestone for Aspectrics," indicated John Coates, a consultant and advisor to the instrumentation business.
"It is not only a recognition by important people close to the industry, but it is also a statement relative to the state-of-the-art of the technology and its ability to meet technical challenges of modern day process monitoring applications.
"The technology and the associated products are a major step forward in terms of size (compact design), speed of data acquisition and data presentation, a cost.
"The system provides FTIR performance or better, at a higher speed, with the cost, simplicity and robustness of a simple non-dispersive IR (NDIR) system.
"It is anticipated that EPIR will provide an important replacement technology for existing FTIR and NDIR systems, and will open up new areas of application based on cost, size and performance considerations".
The R+D 100 Awards were established in 1963 to identify the 100 most technologically significant new products in the market place in a given year.
Over the years, the R+D 100 Awards have recognized winning products with such household names as the fax machine (1975), the printer (1986), the Kodak Photo CD (1991), the Taxol anticancer drug (1993) and HDTV (1998). Request a free brochure from Aspectrics ...
