BROKEN ARROW, OK - The MINISCAN IRXpert
analyzer from AMETEK Grabner® Instruments is
the first completely portable multi-fuel
analyzer for gasoline, diesel and biodiesel
blends that incorporates the advantages of
mid-IR and near-IR spectroscopy to achieve
unmatched accuracy of fuel properties.
Based on Grabner's long-standing expertise in
fuel analysis, the MINISCAN IRXpert is an
intelligent, self-learning analyzer that uses
more than 12,000 data points from the
infrared spectrum to determine the
concentration of molecules in a sample. The
MINISCAN IRXpert is able to yield from that
spectrum a "fingerprint" of more than 40
important fuel properties.
The MINISCAN IRXpert performs compound
analysis according to international standards
(ASTM D5845 for oxygenates, ASTM D6277 and EN
238 for benzene, and EN 14078 for biodiesel).
Predictions for octane number, AKI and cetane
number are based on ASTM D2699, 2700, 613,
ISO 5163, 5164; distillation on ASTM D86 and
ISO 3405; and vapor pressure on ASTM D6378,
D5191, D323 and EN 13016. An integrated
temperature controlled density meter allows
for direct determination of fuel density.
The MINISCAN IRXpert comes fully configured
and ready for fuels testing. A high-end,
full-color touch screen facilities menu
navigation and allows for in-depth spectrum
analysis. USB and Ethernet interfaces
facilitate quick data transfer, printing,
LIMS integration, and remote control and
service.
The MINISCAN IRXpert is highly adaptable and
intelligent. An unlimited number of new
parameters can be added with the push of a
button. Users simply upload a database, and
the analyzer creates the optimum measuring
model.
The MINISCAN IRXpert multi-fuel analyzer is
available in North America from AMETEK
Petrolab Company, a unit of AMETEK, Inc., a
