Raman Spectroscopic Systems
Robust optical measurement of chemical composition.
Raman Spectroscopic Systems
Raman spectroscopic systems are analyzer-and-probe solutions that deliver real-time chemical and composition analysis based on Raman scattering, enabling multi-component measurement with minimal sample preparation. They are positioned for applications where in situ insight into chemistry and concentration profiles improves safety, efficiency, and control of critical operations.
The defining capability is lab-quality analytical insight brought closer to production. Endress+Hauser’s Raman systems are described as providing robust, precise measurement data and real-time, in situ measurements with scalability from laboratory contexts into production environments. This combination supports continuous “pulse” monitoring of composition where conventional grab sampling would be too slow or too operationally burdensome.
Key benefits include rapid response without consumable reagents, strong specificity for chemical fingerprints, and the ability to observe multiple components or phases (including turbid media) from a single measurement point. The result is improved process understanding and an expanded basis for advanced control strategies and faster deviation detection.
Implementation typically centers on selecting the correct sampling interface (probe style, optical path, and installation constraints) and building robust chemometric models for quantitative measurements where required. Systems can be configured to the Raman sampling point for the plant setting, enabling reliable chemical analysis across differing installation environments and process conditions.
Typical applications span life science, food and beverage, chemical, and oil and gas contexts, with analyzers and probes optimized for solids, liquids, gases, and turbid media. Common use patterns include reaction and blending monitoring, concentration tracking in unit operations, and verification/identification tasks where real-time composition is required for quality or safety decisions.
