The mid-infrared instruments from Bentley are built on a proven single-beam optical system, and offers the user with the outmost in reliable testing. The system is comprised of the industry's most reliable homogenization system, and paired with a rugged optical system built from a list of the best standard components available, these instruments are truly honoring the tradition from Bentley by being very low in ownership cost. The instruments will compare with the best in the business to provide quantitative readings from the mid-infrared wavebands (2-15µm). This means that any component with a known absorption peak in this range, can be analyzed by these systems. The systems are a study in proven simplicity at work, to own and maintain an infrared system should be this easy. The Bentley 2000 incorporates a personal computer and a standard A/D converter card to provide a fast, reliable and affordable instrument with no limitations in performance. |

Ideal for labs with small to medium testing requirements. The compact instrument tests 150 s/h.
The Bentley 150 was introduced in 1995 and has many powerful features for the individual dairy plants. Designing it with this type of application in mind has made it more flexible to the needs of various product testing. The Bentley 150 will store an unlimited number of different product calibrations. This allows the operators of the instrument to establish as many different calibration equations as needed for the different products in order to give the best possible results. If two products are very different, they each will have their own calibration files giving the best possible component results.
An example of the flexibility of the instrument is the pump system. Many products are very different in viscosity and the level of stickiness. With the Bentley 150, each product calibration may also contain pump control commands. This allows heavy products such as cream to be pumped into the Bentley 150 without any dilution by setting the pump to a slower speed and increasing the pump volume to insure a good purge. The commands are stored in the product file with all the setup data for that product. The operator needs only choose the desired product from the menu and all the appropriate pump commands and calibration data will be loaded automatically. In this way, the maximum capabilities of the instrument are always being used. If the operator changes products from a heavy cream and begins testing a raw milk sample, the pump will operate at a much faster rate allowing for the highest possible throughput for that particular type of product.
The Bentley 150 was designed with trouble shooting and diagnostics in mind. The screen layout has many of the instrument's vital functions displayed in real time while the instrument is in use. This gives the operator the ability to recognize a potential problem at a glance almost immediately rather than several samples into the testing process. Such diagnostics as cell, base and homogenizer temperature are continually displayed.
The instrument is available in both a manual version and combined with an automatic sampling system. Options include *up to 7 MIR filter selections, *Freezing point depression screening (FPD) *bar-code readers, *printers, *network solutions, *RS232 link, *automatic sample handling.

| The Bentley 2000 is designed for the outmost in system reliability, and with more than 150 units in operation has proven itself worldwide. Depending on the actual configuration it is will test up to 500 s/h. Standard configuration is for fat (A and/or B), protein, lactose, and solids. Designed for use in large central labs, this high speed instrument is ideal for laboratories with a large sample throughput and can be found in wide use in the North American dairy herd improvement industry (DHIA).
