Photometric Measuring and control systems

The photometric measuring instruments can be used to determine the proportions of individual components in substance mixtures, both in online production processes and in laboratory analyses. Optical transmission and reflection measuring systems consist of light source, measuring cell (transmission devices), filter wheel, measuring head, evaluation unit and connecting cables.

Pier-Electronic offers a suitable optical measurement method for every measurement task, whether by transmission photometers, which measure the transmission of a light beam, or by reflection measurement systems, which evaluate the reflection of an emitted light beam.

A network connection can be used to connect to a higher-level archiving system or a maintenance PC.

Pier has been developing and producing specific photometers that are extremely easy to use for over 50 years. They are characterized by high reliability and excellent durability.
With more than 4,000 measuring devices installed worldwide, the quality and practicality of the devices is proven and their wide range of possible applications underlined.

Comprehensive advice for users and the search for optimum solutions, as well as good service, are a matter of course.

A connection to a higher-level archiving system or a maintenance PC can be established via a network connection.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions

Edit Content

Transmission photometers measure the amount of light that passes through a sample. They are ideal for liquids or transparent solids.

Reflection photometers measure the reflected light from a sample surface, e.g. powders, solids or coated materials.

Edit Content

  • Quality control in the industry

  • Color measurement and comparison

  • Determining the concentration of solutions

  • Material testing and surface analysis

Edit Content

Most models operate in the 400-700 nm range (visible range). Extended models also support UV or NIR ranges.

Edit Content

The devices are compatible with standard 10 mm cuvettes (glass, plastic or quartz - depending on the wavelength range).

Edit Content

Using the calibration standards supplied or by automatic zero-point calibration with a blank sample.

Edit Content

 Yes, the photometers can be connected via USB or RS232 to software for data acquisition, analysis and export (Windows-compatible, sometimes also Linux/Mac depending on the model).

Photometric measurement instruments offer a variety of benefits, including: Precision Non-contact measurement Fast results Low maintenance Versatility Data processing

Our products offer non-contact material analysis in real time and online for your production process!

  • Let's assume you produce granules and need a material moisture of less than 1% to prevent the grains from sticking together. To control the drying process, you need current measured values of the material moisture upstream and downstream of the dryer. Our photometers can be installed on the conveyor belt and provide you with a reliable and real-time measurement of the water content of your material.
  • Due to the modular design of our analyzer systems, we offer you versatile application possibilities in process analysis. Photometers and analyzers can be combined and expanded to meet your measurement needs as precisely as possible. Each system is equipped with analog or digital outputs and can be seamlessly integrated into your process control to ensure effective response to the measured values.
  • We have developed two stand-alone instruments especially for applications that are in particularly high demand: The TMK480-CT for precise measurement of the water content in brake fluid and the RMK-9T for reliable measurement of the moisture of PVB film.
