Luminar 4010
In‑Line Fiber-Optic AOTF-NIR Spectrometer
The Luminar 4010 is designed for continuous in‑line or at‑line measurements in demanding industrial environments. Driven by AOTF‑based NIR technology, it uses a fiber‑optic cable to deliver light to a probe or flow cell, with cable lengths up to 300 m and almost no signal degradation.Its stainless‑steel housing and remote‑mount design ensure durable, stable operation.
Built for real‑time process control, the 4010 provides fast, stable measurements with solid‑state reliability, immunity to vibration and ambient light, and dual‑beam referencing. It supports reaction monitoring, extraction monitoring, and general in‑line analysis of moisture, composition, and other key process parameters.
