Product catalog summary
Overview: The Infratec™ 1241 is a grain analyser that employs near-infrared transmittance technology to measure key parameters such as moisture, protein, oil, and starch in grains and oilseeds. It is widely used for trade and payment purposes by bulk grain handlers.
Key Features:
  • Provides rapid and reliable whole grain analysis without the need for sample preparation.
  • Delivers accurate results under varying conditions, unaffected by temperature changes.
  • Offers transferable calibrations and networking capabilities to ensure consistent quality assurance.
Sample Parameters: Capable of testing grains, oilseeds, beans, and pulses quickly and accurately, measuring parameters like moisture, protein, oil, and test weight.
Technology: Utilizes near-infrared transmittance (NIT) technology for deeper penetration into kernels, offering a superior representation of the sample.
Calibration and Stability: Features a comprehensive calibration database with over 50,000 samples, ensuring high accuracy and stability. Employs ANN calibration technology for simplicity and precision.

Infratec™ 1241 whole grain analyser-1

Infratec 1241 Grain Analyser for grain and flour The Infratec™ 1241 is a whole grain analyser using near-infared transmittance technology to test multiple parameters (moisture, protein, oil, starch etc) in a broad range of grain and oilseed commodities. Rapid, reliable and easy to use, it is the official system used for payment by bulk grain handlers around the world and has a number of approvals for trade purposes. Renowned instrument performance coupled with a unique calibration based a vast amount of data make it a highly versatile and powerful analysis unit. There are optional modules for flour analysis, test weight and flexible sample handling. Grains, oilseeds and beans and pulses – they can all be tested quickly, easily and accurately for payment and segregation. Most grains or oilseeds can be analysed directly without any grinding or sample preparation Moisture, protein, oil, test weight and many more Dedicated Analytical Solution

Technology The power of Infratec™ 1241 NIT Near Infrared measurements of grain have shown superior performance when measuring in transmittance mode instead of reflectance mode. Transmittance mode measurements are made in a lower wavelength range, 570 – 1050 nm, whereas the primary information for reflectance measurements is obtained between 1100 – 2500 nm. The higher energy level of the light in the lower range allows for deeper penetration into the kernels, so not only the surface but also the inner part of the kernel is measured. All of this allows a larger sample volume when transmittance...
