Spectro - Model InfraCal 2 ATR-B - Biodiesel Blend Analyzer - Datasheet

The InfraCal 2 Biofuel Analyzer is a low-cost, single wavelength analyzer with filters preset for a particular measurement – either biodiesel in diesel or ethanol in gasoline. Biodiesel has a characteristic infrared absorption band at 5.73 μm (1745 cm-1). Ethanol’s infrared absorbance is at 9.6 μm (1045 cm-1). As the biodiesel or ethanol percentage increases, the infrared absorbance increases. An internal calibration table in the InfraCal 2 Biofuel Analyzer converts infrared absorbance to a digital readout in percent. A fuel sample is placed directly on the exposed ATR sample window and after 10 seconds the percent biodiesel or percent ethanol is displayed. The fuel is easily cleaned off the window using a solvent and a wipe and the analyzer is ready for the next sample. The InfraCal 2 Biofuel Analyzers are ideal where a single, repetitive analysis is needed.
