Brimrose is dedicated to turn ideas into reality. We bring the best and the brightest people together to invent your tomorrows.
The Brimrose Luminar 3060 Multiplexer AOTF-NIR Spectrometer is designed for at-line measurement in a production facility with up to 16 active channels. Each channel is connected to a probe or flow cell with fiber-optic cable. A single spectrometer is multiplexed by rapidly switching the light source from each channel into the detector. All 16 channels can be sequentially analyzed in less than 1 minute.
The 3060 can be a cost-effective option when needing multiple test points. Choosing between a 4030 and 3060 depends upon the number of test points required and the location of each test point due to the length of fiber-optics required to be run.
