This project will enable Keit's industry-proven robust Mid-infrared spectrometer to be used across multiple industries, by developing a probe capable of operating in high temperatures and pressures, in both acidic and alkaline systems, and resistant to the physical challenges of measuring aggressive process liquids.Inserting optical probes in to a wide variety of liquid processes presents significant challenges. High temperatures and pressures test the sealing between the optical and mechanical elements of the probe and the chemical resistance required restricts the materials and manufacturing processes that can be used.Keit's "IRmadillo" spectrometer is already proven in industry to be very stable, reliable and thus low maintenance, but the potential uses are constrained by the process conditions in which the current probes can operate. Development of this new probe will enable a significant expansion of the markets Keit can address.

该项目将使Keit的经过行业验证的强大中红外光谱仪能够在多个行业中使用，通过开发能够在高温和高压，酸性和碱性系统中工作的探头，并抵抗测量侵蚀性过程液体的物理挑战。将光学探头插入各种液体过程中提出了重大挑战。高温和高压测试探头的光学和机械元件之间的密封性，并且所需的耐化学性限制了可以使用的材料和制造工艺。Keit的“IRmadillo”光谱仪已经在工业中被证明非常稳定，可靠，因此维护成本低，但潜在的用途受到当前探头可以运行的工艺条件的限制。这种新探头的开发将使Keit能够解决的市场得到显着扩展。
