Metrohm – NIRS XDS – RapidContent Analyzer
The NIRS XDS RapidContent Analyzer enables rapid, nondestructive analyses of solid powders, coarser granulates, pellets or flakes. Composition or material identification testing is performed either in the laboratory or at-line, on samples contained in their original packaging, bags or vials. An optional variable spot-size feature enables the sample illumination to be adjusted based on the physical properties of your samples.
