AN820 Near Infrared Grain Tester

Near Infrared Grain Tester — Rice Composition, Non-Destructive, Proven Platform

Measure protein, moisture, and amylose in whole rice in about 40 seconds, with eight factory calibrations on board and a simple keypad workflow built for consistent results.

  • Eight rice calibrations: Short and long, brown and milled, plus high-moisture and rinse-free channels.
  • Non-destructive: Whole-grain NIR transmittance — no grinding, sample survives.
  • Simple to run: Clear dot-matrix display and dedicated keypad, operator to operator.
  • Stable and protected: 20,000-hour lamp and backup battery for stored calibrations.

Description

Reliable NIR Rice Composition Analysis on a Proven Platform

The AN820 reads protein, moisture, and amylose in whole rice using near-infrared transmittance — no crushing, no grinding, results in about 40 seconds. With eight factory-calibrated rice channels and a straightforward keypad workflow, it gives mills and buyers consistent composition readings on a dependable desktop platform.

Built for Repeatable Rice Composition

  • Eight rice calibrations on board: Short and long, brown and milled, plus high-moisture and rinse-free rice channels — selectable from the keypad.
  • Whole-grain, non-destructive: Total-grain NIR transmittance measures the intact sample, so nothing is wasted.
  • Straightforward operation: A clear dot-matrix display and dedicated keypad keep measurement simple and repeatable across operators.
  • Serial and printer output: RS-232C and direct printer output capture results for record-keeping and downstream systems.

Built for the Working Bench

A 20,000-hour tungsten lamp with grating and NMOS photodiode-array detector holds measurement stable over long service, and a built-in backup battery protects stored calibrations through power interruptions. A One Year Total Care Warranty covering parts, labor, and specification compliance comes standard, with maintenance agreements available.

Need direct USB and PC connectivity? The AN830 NIR Grain Analyzer adds USB output and expanded data-handling options on the same rice-composition platform.
