What’s in a Name?
In November 2011 we officially changed our name from Texmate NZ to Define Instruments. We were immediately hit with a flood of questions: Why? Have we been taken over? Are we going to change what we do, how we operate or what we sell? Don’t worry it’s all good news! We haven’t been taken over. We’re still under the same management, and we’re still committed to bringing you the same great products and personal service. Our main reason for changing our name was to separate our identity from our historical parent company Texmate Inc, with whom we are no longer affiliated. But it’s also an acknowledgment of the fact that times have changed. Thirty years ago, ‘tex’ didn’t mean much now it is strongly associated with text messaging. It was time for a change, and we embraced it! We chose a new name that makes a strong statement about what we do, and highlights the precision and innovative drive that have always been our benchmarks.

DF-745SG Trace Moisture Analyser The DF-745SG Trace Moisture Analyser brings the extraordinary capabilities of the DF-700 Series analysers to applications in the specialty gas industry as well as allied applications requiring the accurate measurement of trace moisture levels in gas mixtures. This combination of high sensitivity-100ppb LDL-with broad range -100ppm- at an attractive price means that high-value specialty gas operations can now be controlled to ensure high yields economically with a DF-745SG analyser. The DF-745SG is a sophisticated process analyser that has application software specifically designed for blending specialty gases involving single gases and mixtures with up to eight components drawn from a database of 13 standard background gases. The user can pre-define gas mixture templates for routine blends (with up to 30 templates) or define a custom mixture using the front control panel. The analyser allows the user to add custom gases to the database using a simple data collection procedure. The analyser collects production data that identifies the components and volumes in a mixture as well as the date, time and moisture content of the blend. This data can be displayed on the analyser’s data screen or downloaded onto a USB drive and printed out as a report in an Excel format. The DF 745SG is a versatile tool for help in minimizing the moisture in your specialty gas stream. The analyser is designed for 19 inch rack mount as a fixed system and, at only 64 lbs, is ideal for cart or other mobile applications. The analyser can be quickly moved from port to port thanks to isolation hardware and software routines that virtually eliminate long dry down times often associated with these applications. Based on the same proven design tradition as Delta F's oxygen and moisture instruments the DF-745SG expands the range of applications that can now afford this capable technology.

BioTector System-C
BioTector System-C Online TOC Analyzer was developed to meet the needs of a specific market segment - Clean Water Applications. Some features of the existing BioTector series are not required in these applications eg. particulate handling and the ability to manage Fats, Oils and Greases. But customers with clean water applications still want the reassuring quality of a BioTector Analyzer. So, in response to their feedback, we developed the System-C Online TOC Analyzer. BioTector System-C for clean water applications will give you process insights, process incident alerts, environmental monitoring, energy optimisation, product loss prevention, water loss prevention, boiler protection and plant protection. And it comes with the award-winning performance that you expect from the BioTector patented Two-Stage Advanced Oxidation technology (TSAO). Features:

Next Generation COMPACT Lab Yeast Analyser The instrument allows process operators or lab staff in breweries and bioethanol plants to measure the live yeast cell concentration with high accuracy and repeatability.” The LYA is very easy to use. Just pour an un-diluted sample of yeast (approx. 45ml) into the housing, press MEASURE and an accurate viable cell concentration is given after just 20 seconds. It eliminates time consuming dilution or counting under the microscope and important decisions on yeast pitching rates can be made by process operators. The LYA does not need the addition of any potentially carcinogenic dyes, there are no ongoing costs of cassettes/slides and the instrument requires virtually zero maintenance. The LYA can therefore save time and money in the brewery. The LYA is accurate over a wide range of cell concentrations and is not influenced by varying levels of trub. Traditional cell counting methods using methylene blue stains are inaccurate the viable cell concentration falls below 90% and the method is prone to errors due to human subjectivity. An additional benefit with the new LYA is that it uses the same type of electrodes and V-350 transmitter and screen used in on-line Compact Yeast Monitor. The readings on the lab instrument should therefore duplicate the on-line measurements. The LYA can now handle up to 20 different yeast strains and it has a simpler procedure for calibration compared to older models. It will measure concentrations up to 70% viable spun solids without dilution and measurement units can be switched between “viable cells/ml” and “% viable spun solids”. |

Dansensor® LeakMatic II - NEW Fully automated non-destructive leak detector - seal integrity of all your modified atmosphere packages is ensured Now with optical sensor When the correct management focus is put on seal integrity the benefits can easily be seen in cost reductions. A well-established quality assurance will give reduced waste, reduced product returns, reduced labour and reduced loss of machine time. Hence giving an attractive return on investment time. PBI-Dansensor has developed a compact on-line leak system, which gives the possibility of detecting packages in complete shipping cartons. By using the CO2 already available in the MAP packages as trace gas, it is possible to test all packages shortly after they have left the packaging machine. This test method is of course non-destructive and furthermore it is possible to test 4-6 shipping cartons per minute. Benefits of the PBI-Dansensor LeakMatic II:

Rotronic CO2 Transmitters
New Parameter: Rotronic is proud to present our new range of transmitters for CO2. Additionally some of these transmitters come also with complementary CO and temperature measurement. New Technology: The transmitters are equipped with nondispersive infrared sensor (NDIR). The infrared light is directed through the sample chamber towards the detector. The detector has an optical filter in front of it that eliminates all light except the wavelength that the selected gas molecules can absorb. Ideally other gas molecules do not absorb light at this wavelength. |

Dansensor® MAP Check 3 - NEW A smarter way to control your MAP process MAP is the future. But companies using more gas than necessary to produce MAP products run the risk of becoming history. That's why we've designed this gas analyser to be so precise. With the MAP Check 3, the gas target you set is the gas dosage you get. It eliminates the all-too-common problem of well-intentioned operators using too much gas, without realising its effect on production costs. The only thing the MAP Check 3 increases is your flexibility. It lets you combine monitoring of gas content on a vertical or horizontal flow packaging machine with real-time control of package flushing via an advanced GasSave function. For most manufacturers, this translates into a 20-50% decrease in gas consumption! It also improves reliability and efficiency. Unlike random, off-line quality control, on-line quality assurance with the MAP Check 3 means that every package is tested far more quickly and efficiently than with manual testing. And if there's a problem, production stops automatically, helping to avoid recalls or the need to repack entire batches. Benefits:

It's also simple when it comes to product selection no longer do you need to worry about inlet and outlet pressure, whether it will work with your nitrogen or oxygen generators or which gasses you need to mix. Your only decision is whether you need to mix two or three gasses everything else gets set up on the intuitive touch screen once you power up the unit for the first time. Despite its very limited physical size, the MAP Mix Provectus delivers an outstanding flow of up to 1,500 l/min and if that's not enough, you can bridge up to three mixers and triple the capacity.
