PROGAZE lean
Versatile process spectrometers for UV, VIS, NIR, and Raman applications.
Optimized for Process Analytics
The PROGAZE lean series is an exceptionally versatile spectrometer series, as all conceivable components and accessories are fully integrated in one device. This provides complex systems in an industrial-grade housing.
Outstanding optical properties and sophisticated data processing methods situate the lean series within the high-end range of process spectrometers.
Superior performance and a high degree of standardization between the devices ensure robust calibrations and the transferability of methods or models from system to system.
Quick and reliable measurement data is generated and available in real time. Consequently, applications such as qualitative and quantitative analysis or the measurement of the film-thickness, color evaluation, and many more can easily be addressed.
Highly Flexible
The PROGAZE lean series is available in different versions for UV, VIS, NIR, or Raman applications.
A range of variants with options for e.g. integrated computing power, interfaces, or power supplies ensure to meet individual requirements.
For multi-channel operation, the lean systems feature up to 4 channels for illumination and detection, respectively.
Future-proof Interfaces
To transfer the acquired data to any automation layer or control software, the PROGAZE lean system offers various communication interfaces and protocols, e. g.:
- Classic (4 ... 20 mA, Digital I/O etc.)
- Fieldbus (Modbus, Profibus etc.)
- Advanced Standards (OPC-UA)
These future-proof interfaces also give convenient access to modular automation, such as MTP, or client/broker based concepts.
All probes and additional external periphery (e. g., temperature sensors or pressure sensors) can be controlled and monitored directly via the PROGAZE lean interface.
Make It Smart
In addition to standard system operation via an external software application, the SMART versions with on-board microprocessors permit autonomous stand-alone operation.

Data Processing and Evaluation
All PROGAZE lean systems comprise:
- Full control of periphery
- On-board data pretreatment
- Condition monitoring functions
For system operation, an appropriate application software (Progaze Soft) is provided.
Alternatively, standardized protocols and SDKs enable a fast and easy system implementation into your software application.
Optionally, the PROGAZE lean systems are equipped with an integrated microcontroller for Linux (SMART I) or Win IoT (SMART II).
These SMART versions enable full real-time data evaluation on the device itself (no external PC needed), including:
- Commercially available prediction engines (chemometrics, color evaluation, etc.)
- Script languages (Python, R, etc.)
The required model files as well as further workflow procedures can be stored directly on the device in an access-protected memory.
Probes for All Types of Samples
Various process-grade, fiber-coupled probes are compatible to the PROGAZE lean system
- Progaze 82: Non-contact probe for conveyor belt or foil/web applications.
- Progaze 71: Contact probe for measurements of powders, granules, liquids, and paste-like media.
- Progaze 62: Immersible reflection probe for insertion in tubes, pipes and vessels.
- Progaze 51: Transflection probe for measurements of transparent media.
- Progaze 41: Immersible probe for Raman applications.
- Progaze 31: Flow cell for installations in large-scale production facilities
Up to four probes can be operated simultaneously with one PROGAZE lean system.
