Opening new horizons for users and manufacturers: The Tidus Lumio is an ATEX-compliant Raman probe for process environments which comes with an integrated laser light source. It is connected to a spectrophotometer for receiving the signal and transforming it into measurement data similar to standard probes. A system set up with an explosion-proof Raman spectrometer is not necessary anymore as  the probe can be operated together with almost any Raman spectrometer or even with suitable Vis spectrometers for adequate applications such as qualification purposes.

The Tidus Lumio plays a vital role to ensure that final products meet challenging requirements and at the same time conducts save and secure production processes under explosion-proof atmosphere conditions. On the one hand, end users can operate the Tidus Lumio probe together with an ATEX-capable Vis spectrometer, on the other hand the probe can also be connected to sensitive non-ATEX spectrometers and realize measurements in an ATEX environment. This makes the Tidus Lumio ideal for device manufacturers and system integrators to expand their existing portfolio to include ATEX applications and gain previously unreachable customers. but also for endusers with spectroscopy knowledge.

Raman spectroscopy is a proven measurement technology in a wide range of applications from minerals processing (Oxide, Sulfide, Silicate, Halogen, Sulfate, Carbonate, Phosphate) to polymer applications. Especially the analysis of aqueous solutions as seen in the bioprocessing, food and beverage industry are relevant applications where Raman spectroscopy provides big advantages over IR and NIR spectroscopic methods as the Raman signal is not overwhelmed with water band signals. The application possibilities of Tidus Lumio are highly diverse and range from laboratory research to large-scale manufacturing:

• Polymers for Clothing, Automotive Industry, Coatings, Adhesives and Consumer Goods

• Chemical Synthesis in the pharmaceutical industry and Specialty Chemicals Industry

• Bio-Pharmaceutical Industry

• Food and Beverage Industry

• Petrochemical Industry
