DICKEY-john Instalab 700 NIR Analyser

Quality design and construction ensures the most reliable NIR results available.

The Instalab® 700 NIR Analyzer has a patented rotating sample cup which virtually eliminates problems associated with sample non-homogeneity. The cup rotation is computer controlled, with 120 readings taken at 3° intervals and averaged for each wavelength. The optional liquid sample cup has a non-rotation feature for measurement of liquids and oils.

Completely customizable, it allows filters to be changed to adjust the bandwidth for product constituents, including protein, cellulose, sugar, ash, starch, oil and fat, alcohol, cotton, and polyester. The Instalab 700 is an analytical upgrade from the Instalab 600 series, which allows for porting of the Instalab 600’s extensive constituent library to the Instalab 700.

The Instalab 700 is dependable in design and built for trouble-free operation in any environment – from lab to production line.

Grain Splitter

Constructed from stainless steel for visual durability and ease of cleaning, the simple design was conceived for use by unskilled operatives in either laboratory or field environments. The split grains are separated and then collected in small trays that lock into the machine to ensure minimal spillage.

A few simple design elements have been combined here to produce a reliable, functional machine that is both intuitive to use and maintain. Demand, rather than advertising, has resulted in a significant field population. The product has been well proven in many parts of the world. Each grain splitter comes in a carry case, including a memory stick which contains operating instructions and maintenance, tweezers, spare blades and lubricating oil.
