The Perten DA 7350 In-line NIR Analyser provides fast, accurate, real-time testing for food and agricultural processing operations.

Processing in the food and agricultural sectors requires consistency and efficiency to ensure quality and competitiveness. Advanced in-line testing helps companies reduce waste and improve their products.

The DA 7350 is a robust and adaptable solution to multi-constituent measuring of processing line products.

Use the Perten DA 7350 to test for:

• Moisture

• Protein

• Fat

• Oil

• Ash

on these products:

• Grains

• Flour

• Animal feed

Why choose the Perten DA 7350?

The DA 7350 provides real time measurements, allowing you to monitor your processes and optimise them in real time, saving on costs, improving the consistency of your product quality and increasing yields.

You can easily integrate it into your process control systems – with its industry-standard communications and connectivity capability, the DA 7350 is ready for Industry 4.0.

Its built-in camera provides colour measurements and image analysis for speck counting on processing lines, supporting clear monitoring of production processes.

It has a tough, resilient design, making it highly suitable for harsh, production facility environments. It is IP65 certified.

The DA 7350 uses diode array technology, which means it has no internal moving parts, helping to ensure its robustness wherever you choose to use it.

How does it work?

The Perten DA 7350 analyses grain and foodstuffs using near infrared analysis (NIR, a spectroscopic technique that produces reliable data rapidly.

NIR accuracy is, typically, 1.5 times the variability of its reference method, based on calibration.

The DA 7350 is specially designed for in-line use, with proven effectiveness throughout the food and agricultural sectors. It is used worldwide at food and agricultural production sites.

You can mount the instrument on conveyors and mixers; on different processing lines and at different stages of the production process – at input or output stage, before or after drying, pre-packaging or before other critical processes.

Its real time process viewing allows users to view stages of processing remotely on networked devices, allowing operators to identify issues such as foreign materials, blockages or errors in colour immediately.

You can also programme it to capture product images automatically at specified intervals in the production process.

The benefits of In-line NIR analysis

The Perten DA 7350 In-line Analyser is used in the following processes:

Flour milling – for accurately measuring ash in real-time, blending wheat and flour streams to meet specifications and optimising the addition of gluten.

Corn milling and starch production – monitoring and controlling drying to save on raw materials, and ensuring constant product quality.

Oilseed processing – measuring moisture, oil and protein in grain, controlling moisture and fat in mixing and helping to avoid faulty batches.

Dairy processing – real-time monitoring of product moisture when drying milk powder, and optimising the fat and moisture content of butter.

The DA 7350 allows users to control otherwise costly production and processing issues, helping to reduce waste and streamline resources. It also enables continuous monitoring of entire product batches or runs.
