Compact, robust and user-friendly mid-FTIR spectrometer for the automatic measurement of the concentration of the most important components of gasoline
The Grabner Irox 2000 from Sartec is an extremely compact, robust and user-friendly mid-FTIR spectrometer for the automatic measurement of the concentration of the most important components of gasoline.
Thanks to a new and improved mathematical model and the use of a built-in density meter, the instrument provides enhanced results for the prediction of key properties such as octane numbers, distillation properties and vapour pressure.
A large number of country specific calibration samples are stored and Outlier fuels can be easily added through the calibration menu using the integral display/keypad.
The portability and vehicle battery options are ideal for on-site field use.
The heart of the instrument is an extremely compact mid-FTIR spectrometer.
Fully automatic optical realignment during warm-up ensures high stability even after long use or transportation. Instead of a few filter-lines, the complete absorption spectrum is measured.
This provides complete information of the substances present in the gasoline, eliminates variations of the baseline and minimises interference.
The instrument measures a wide range of parameters and meets ASTM D5845, ASTM D6277 and EN238 standards.
For diesel fuels Grabner's Irox Diesel is a perfect partner.
The unit is very similar to the Irox 2000 and only differs in the cell-length and the on-board software and calibration routines.
The Irox instruments form a small part of a large family of Grabner analysers and testers for parameters such as vapour pressure, flash point, distillation, density, and colour.
