FIELD: measurement equipment.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a device and a method for economic inline-measurement by a method of near infrared spectroscopy, and namely for economic inline-measurement by the method of near infrared spectroscopy of ingredients, qualitative parameters or as a whole properties of grains of crops, etc., as well as their component parts in flows of product (3) at flour-milling plants or feed-milling plants. By means of at least one measuring probe (1) in a preferable version from freely flowing product (3) in a flow tube there accepted are reflection spectra that are transmitted to data processing device (2) spatially separated from it and provided with built-in spectrometer (12). The measured values determined by data processing device (2) are transmitted to control unit (24) or to control system (22) and can be used there to monitor and/or adjust processes or plants.
EFFECT: costs based on one measurement point are considerably lower in comparison to measuring systems with a near infrared spectroscopy method, which have been used before the present time, owing to simple presentation of a product, as well as multiple use of a data processing device.
