Spectrum Rado Probe Holder

The Spectrum RADO Probe Holder is designed to integrate standard NIR, UV, Raman and Particle size analyser probes at adjustable depth into your process vessel or stream by means of a standard 2” Hygiene Tri Clamp process equipment port. The device is designed to allow reliable sampling of fresh material from product being processed, by wiping the window of the probe in the holder, such that a good PAT measurement may be made on a fresh sample in front of the window. The Spectrum RADO is designed to wipe away the sample already scanned whilst simultaneously wiping the face of the PAT probe so as to ensure no residue from the previous sample remains in the collection window.
The probe holder is heated to reduce the possibility of material sticking to probe window or the device itself. The device is constructed from fully traceable and certified FDA approved materials of construction. Air actuation of the device allows safe use of the Spectrum Probe.
