10/100 Operation Manual ProxiMate™
Appropriate warnings in this manual serve to alert the user to these residual dangers.
2.4.1 Glass and acrylic breakage
Broken glass and acrylic can cause severe cuts.
Broken glass or acrylic can enter production.
uHandle the Petri Dishes and other glass and acrylic components carefully and do
not drop them.
uAlways visually inspect glass and acrylic components for damage every time they
are to be used.
uDo not continue to use glass and acrylic components that are damaged.
uAlways wear protective gloves when disposing of broken glass and acrylic.
2.4.2 Faults during operation
If a device is damaged, sharp edges or exposed electrical wires can cause injuries.
uRegularly check device for visible damage.
uIf faults occur, switch off the device immediately and inform the operator.
uDo not continue to use devices that are damaged.
2.4.3 Instrument damage due to an incorrectly installed IP module
An incorrectly installed IP module can cause material and moisture to enter the
instrument.
uDo not open the IP module.
uMake sure that the USB sockets are covered when not in use.
2.4.4 Malware infection due to connections with other devices or
network
Connections with other devices or a network can cause a malware infection to the
instrument.
uInstall antivirus software and firewall on the instrument before connecting it to
other devices or network.

12/100 Operation Manual ProxiMate™
3 Product description
3.1 Description of function
ProxiMate™ is a NIR spectrometer that can be used to determine the concentration
of different parameters in food and feed samples in a nondestructive way.
ProxiMate™ is supplied in different versions. Dependent on the version specified
ProxiMate™ is either an NIR or combined NIR and visible spectrometer.
The instrument generates a beam of NIR and visible light which is focused onto the
sample under investigation. Light reflected from the sample is collected and spatially
separated by a diffraction element. The diffracted light is directed onto a diode array
detector. Signals from the detector are processed and a reflectance spectrum is
constructed. This spectrum undergoes further processing to calculate the constituents
required.
Data processing
The NIR light interacts with the sample material in different ways, leaving a
characteristic fingerprint on the spectrum. Spectra from both liquids and solids can be
measured with ProxiMate™. The spectra of solid samples are collected directly, liquid
samples require the use of a transflectance adapter.
Application
The Application defines all of the parameters related to measurement of a particular
sample type.
This includes:
the properties to be measured
the calibrations used
the standard operating procedure
It is possible to Import or Export a file that contains all Application data to allow the
same Application to be used on a second ProxiMate™ (dependent on calibration
license requirements).
3.2 Sample presentation options
The choice of sample presentation of ProxiMate™ is optimised for the type of sample
under analysis and for the working environment where the instrument is used.
ProxiMate™ can be configured with a choice of sample presentation options: up view
and down view configurations.
NOTE
You can capitalise on the advantages of the up view and down view options in a
single instrument.
3.2.1 Up view option
The up view option directs and collects light from the underside of the sample. The
NIR light passes through the base of a glass petri dish before interacting with the
sample under evaluation. Up view measurement has the advantage that a more
consistent surface is presented to the ProxiMate™ ensuring accurate measurement
output. Glass petri dishes are recommended to enable best performance.
Additionally, when used in conjunction with a transflectance adapter, it is also
possible to measure liquids using the up view option.
NOTE
Choose the up view option for the most consistent measurement performance or for
measurements of liquids.

Büchi Labortechnik AG Product description | 3
Operation Manual ProxiMate™ 13/100
3.2.2 Down view option
With down view option light is focussed onto and collected from the top surface of the
sample. In areas where glass is prohibited (such as some food production areas), the
down view mode offers the advantage that NIR light does not interact with the sample
container. As plastics have their own NIR spectra, changes in type of dish can
influence the measurement output leading to perceived measurement shifts. Use of
the down view mode prevents this from occurring. Additionally ProxiMate™ down
view also allows the use of large volume sample dishes. These are particularly useful
with samples that are inhomogeneous, as the measurement is averaged over a much
larger sample area.
NOTE
Choose the down view option for areas where glass is prohibited or where larger
sample volumes are required.
3.3 Measurement modes
3.3.1 Diffuse reflection mode
Non-translucent materials can be ana-
lyzed via diffuse reflection.
NIR light penetration is limited by the
sample material. It interacts with the sam-
ple, is refracted and diffusely reflected
into the sensor. The reflected rays contain
the spectral information of the sample.

3.3.2 Transflectance mode
Translucent and opaque liquids can be
analyzed via transflectance mode. The
light penetrates the liquid, is diffusely re-
flected by the reference plate and passes
through the sample a second time. The
transflected rays contain the spectral in-
formation of the sample.
