Single Probe with multiple analytical technologies
About Blazemetrics
BlazeMetrics introduces a groundbreaking approach to process analytical technology (PAT) with its patented single-probe, multiple-PAT solution. This innovative technology consolidates various analytical measurements into one probe, drastically cutting down on capital, installation, maintenance, and operational costs compared to traditional systems that require separate probes for each measurement.
BlazeBasicG3 (Lab Series): Simplicity and core capabilities
The BlazeBasicG3 is a standalone system engineered for straightforward use in laboratory environments. It offers essential analytical capabilities in a compact, integrated package.
Key features:
- Image derived particle size and count (ID-CLD)
- Ultra high resolution microscopy (with Meso (230µm), Micro (900µm), Milli (230µm) options)
- PG (particle generated) polarization microscopy
- HDR (high dynamic range) turbidity
Operational range:
Effectively analyzes a wide spectrum of slurries, from "black to white, including yellow and red at any concentration."
Simplicity:
Designed for easy setup and operation, making it perfect for researchers and quality control in labs needing a dedicated, fixed setup.
Ideal for:
Academic research, R&D labs, and quality control applications requiring robust, multi-parameter inline analysis without the need for modularity or hazardous environment certifications.
B BlazePlatform (Lab Series - Modular): Enhanced Flexibility and Adaptability
The BlazePlatform is a modular system built for superior flexibility and expanded utility. It significantly reduces capital expenditure by allowing a single base unit to serve multiple applications, extending the capabilities of the BlazeBasicG3 with a focus on adaptability.
Key features:
- All BlazeBasicG3 Features: Includes all the core analytical technologies of the BlazeBasicG3.
- Optional particle focused (PF) Raman spectroscopy: A key differentiator, allowing users to add PF Raman spectroscopy (532 nm and/or 785 nm excitation) for chemical identification and polymorph information from suspended solids, enhancing analytical depth.
- Interchangeable Probe System: This crucial feature enables users to swap different probe sizes and microscopy resolutions (e.g., Meso, Micro, Milli) on the same base unit. This means one system can be used for various experiments or in multiple locations with permanently installed probes, leading to substantial cost savings.
- Modular Design: Allows users to scale analytical capabilities as needed, investing in additional probes or Raman modules only when required.
Ideal for:
Process development labs, research facilities, and pilot plants that need a versatile system to analyze a wide range of samples and processes, with the potential to integrate Raman spectroscopy for more detailed chemical characterization.
BlazePlant & BlazeEx (industrial series): Durability and real time industrial analysis
The BlazePlant and BlazeEx systems are engineered for durability, longevity, and reduced capital costs in demanding industrial environments. They bring the advanced analytical capabilities of BlazeMetrics directly into manufacturing processes.
Key features of BlazePlant & BlazeEx:
- All BlazeBasicG3 features: Both systems include the core analytical technologies: Image Derived Particle Size and Count, ultra high resolution microscopy, PG (particle generated) polarization microscopy, and HDR (high dynamic range) turbidity.
- Optional Ex-PF Raman: Similar to the BlazePlatform, these systems can integrate particle focused (PF) Raman spectroscopy (with specific Ex-rated options for hazardous environments).
- Interchangeable probe system: Features the interchangeable probe system, enabling the use of different probe sizes and microscopy resolutions, and facilitating easy use with permanently installed probes in multiple locations across a plant.
- Mounting options: Designed for easy integration into existing infrastructure with available reactor, flow cell, and pipeline mounts.
Specific to BlazeEx:
Explosion-Proof (Ex-Rated) certifications: The BlazeEx line holds critical certifications for hazardous environments, including NFPA 70: Class 1 Zone 1, ATEX: Class 1 Zone 1, and NFPA 496: Class 1 Div 1. This makes them indispensable when handling flammable substances and gases.
Ideal for:
- BlazePlant: Industrial process monitoring and control in non-hazardous or less strictly regulated environments, where robust and reliable inline analysis is crucial.
- BlazeEx: Critical process analytical applications in highly regulated and potentially explosive environments, providing real-time data for safety and quality control.
