The portable Analyzer AgriNIR™ is composed by:
FODDER BOX
→
sampling box with screwed handles on presser, for the collection of the forage samples
that has to be analyzed with AgriNIR™.
NIR OPTICAL UNIT
→
optical unit for acquisition of light produced by the sample to be analyzed.
This unit consists of:
•
Read NIR
→
Optical reading head that senses the light spectra produced by the feed component
present in the fodder box inside AgriNIR™ system.
•
Optical Fiber
→
transmits the light sensed by Read NIR head to NIR optical sensor.
•
NIR sensor
→
optoelectronic device that receives the light spectra sensed by Read NIR head
on the feed component and transforms them in electrical signals.
ELECTRONIC UNIT
→
processing and control unit of the AgriNIR™ system. With this unit the operator
can start the analysis on the feed components put in the fodder box, and get the analysis results shown
on display. These results can be printed on a paper or stored on a USB Pen Drive.
USB MEMORY PEN DRIVE
→
Memory unit that allows to store the results of the performed analysis and
to transfer them to PC through the management software DGNirManager.
