Near Infrared Reflectance Accessory (NIRA)

The NIRA is an intelligent sampling system designed for reflectance measurements of solids and transflectance measurements of liquids. The technique is non-destructive and particularly useful for undiluted powders and granular materials.

The accessory can be used for a wide variety of sample types in various containers and includes self-referencing for increased reproducibility and ease of use. Features of the NIRA include:

• Integrated, zero alignment, zero set-up design. Once locked into the sample compartment the NIRA accessory becomes an integral part of the system and is ready to use.
• Horizontal sample platform for convenient sample positioning.
• Integrated, high performance stabilized InGaAs detector system standard.
• Range of optional accessories such as the sample spinner are available for inhomogeneous solids or liquids samples.
• Removed and replaced in seconds via quick-release lever with automatic parameter setup.

The NIRA is supplied with a standard accessories kit including a sample positioner, reference materials, and sample handling tools.
