NIRS DS2500 — Complete Feed Quality Control Without Compromise

Feed production is always a balance between quality, cost efficiency, and consistent performance. A small error in raw material evaluation or formulation can lead to significant financial losses. That’s why NIRS DS2500 is more than just a laboratory instrument — it is a production management tool.

Developed by FOSS, this next-generation analyzer is designed specifically for accurate control of feeds and feed ingredients. Operating in a wide spectral range of 400–2500 nm, it delivers reliable and stable results even in demanding production environments with dust, vibration, and heavy workloads.

 

Control at Every Stage of Production

With NIRS DS2500, you gain full process transparency:

  • Verification of incoming raw materials

  • Real-time formulation adjustments during production

  • Quality control of finished products

The analyzer measures protein, fat, moisture, ash, starch, amino acids, total fiber, soluble and insoluble fiber, and more — depending on applied calibrations.

This allows you to reduce overuse of costly ingredients while ensuring consistent product quality.

Sample

Measurement of granulated and ground feed and forage, including pellet quality control.

Parameters

Oil (fat), protein, moisture, ash, starch, amino acids, fibre (total, soluble and insoluble), color, and many other parameters.

 

Technology That Works for Your Results

NIRS DS2500 features full factory standardization by FOSS. Calibrations can be transferred between instruments without loss of accuracy — a key advantage for multi-site operations.

With FOSS Mosaic software, the analyzer can be connected via LAN or Internet, allowing you to:

  • Monitor instrument performance

  • Update calibrations

  • Run diagnostics

  • Generate reports

  • Receive online technical support

All without interrupting production.

 

An Investment in Stability and Profitability

NIRS DS2500 helps you:

  • Reduce production costs

  • Minimize operational risks

  • Maintain formulation consistency

  • Make decisions based on accurate data

It is a solution for businesses that want to stay in control — not react to problems after they occur.
