PIKE NIR IntegratIR – Near-Infrared Integrating Sphere

A specialized Near-IR integrating sphere for the rapid, non-destructive analysis of powders, solids, and granules

Product Overview

The PIKE NIR IntegratIR is a high-performance accessory designed to optimize the collection of diffuse reflectance spectra in the Near-Infrared region. Integrating spheres are the "gold standard" for NIR sampling because they minimize the effects of sample texture and orientation, providing highly representative spectra of inhomogeneous materials. This makes it an ideal tool for the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.The accessory features a high-reflectivity diffuse gold coating and an integrated high-sensitivity detector, ensuring excellent signal-to-noise ratios. It includes a convenient "up-looking" sample port where samples can be placed in glass vials or beakers, allowing for fast and clean sampling without the need for complex preparation

Key Features

  • Diffuse Reflectance Optimization: Minimizes sampling errors caused by irregular particle sizes.
  • High Sensitivity: Integrated InGaAs or PbS detector for maximum NIR performance.
  • Rapid Sampling: Large sample port allows for analysis through glass vials and bags.
  • Internal Reference: Built-in gold reference disk for easy background collection.
  • Robust Design: Easy-to-clean interface for industrial and laboratory environments
