BSS1700 NIR Composition Analyzer

Description

See What Makes Up Your Product, Not Just the Total

Most analyzers give you one number: total fat, total sugar, total solids. The BSS1700 gives you the breakdown. By reading the full near-infrared spectrum instead of a few fixed filter bands, this scanning spectrometer resolves a combined measurement into the individual constituents behind it. With a full touchscreen PC built into the instrument, it develops and runs your calibrations on board, a complete composition laboratory in a single self-contained unit.

Why Full-Spectrum Measurement Matters

• Individual constituents, not aggregates: Resolve total fat into individual fatty acids, total sugar into individual sugars, or a blend into its multiple alcohol types. A filter-based sensor reports the combined value; the full spectrum separates it.
• Calibration belongs with the instrument: The integrated panel PC runs Unscrambler X chemometrics software directly on the unit, so method development, storage, and measurement all live in one place.
• Composition work needs a full spectrum: An InGaAs array captures up to 512 wavelengths across 900 to 1700 nm every second, the spectral detail that constituent resolution depends on.
• Process systems need real outputs: Standard 0–20 mA and 4–20 mA analog current outputs and USB connect the analyzer to recorders and control systems.

A Self-Contained Analyzer

The BSS1700 carries everything on board: an 8.4″ 800 × 640 touchscreen panel PC, Unscrambler X 10.2 calibration software, and an InGaAs spectrometer measuring up to three components across the full 900 to 1700 nm band. It scans once per second and outputs over USB and analog current loop (0–20 mA / 4–20 mA). Resolution reaches 0.01%; how closely a reading tracks your lab depends on the precision of the reference method the calibration is built against, since any NIR analyzer can only be as accurate as the referee method for that product. Every BSS1700 is backed by one-year Total Care coverage: parts, labor, and specification compliance, with maintenance agreements available.

Need the total, or the breakdown? A filter-based analyzer like the KJT700 Instant Online Composition Meter reports a single combined value, total fat or total sugar, which is the right tool when one number is what you need. The BSS1700 reads the full spectrum to resolve that total into its individual constituents, including applications such as fatty-acid profile, individual sugars, or active pharmaceutical ingredient content.

Installing a new or space-constrained measurement point? The BeatSensor line, such as the BSR1700 Online NIR Composition Analyzer, delivers the same full-spectrum constituent resolution as a compact smart sensor: calibrations are developed on a separate PC and uploaded to the unit, allowing a smaller housing for tight process installations. The BSS1700 keeps the calibration software and full PC on board; the BeatSensor units move it off the unit. Choose by how and where you need to install and calibrate.
