 BIRTH OF REIL
• Rajasthan Electronics & Instruments Ltd. was founded to aid in the
upliftment of the rural masses by taking electronics to the villages.
• Govt. of India conceived a project to introduce Electronic Milk Testers
(EMT). The technology was arranged in collaboration with a Danish
Organization M/s. N Foss Electric, and thus REIL was born in 1981.
• REIL is an ISO 9001 public sector .
• Encouraged by the success of the EMT and the willingness of the rural
folk to accept modern technology. It made forays into the Renewable
Energy Sector as well as Industrial Electronics and IT and has never
looked back since.
• The company ventured into manufacturing SPV Modules in 1985. In the
field of SPV technology the company further diversified into the
manufacture of Solar Photovoltaic based application products.
 BRIEF HISTORY OF REIL

• Rajasthan Electronics & Instruments Ltd. (REIL) has a prominent

place amongst the electronics industry of Rajasthan.
• The company is a joint venture between the Government of India &
the Government of Rajasthan, through their respective institutions.
• The company was conferred the status of a "MINI RATNA" by the
Department of Public Enterprises, Ministry of Industry, Government
of India in 1997 on account of it's good allround performance and
excellent products. 
• The company has added another feather in it's cap by establishing a
Quality Management system .

 AGRO ELECTRONICS

• The Electronics Division kicked off its operations in

1982.
• The operations started with the Electronic Milk Tester.
• In response to customer requirements, designed it on
micro-controller technology to suit the needs of the
Indian customers. Thus, the auto-zero EMT was
introduced in the market in the year 1990.
• The Company has also successfully integrated the
products into a more versatile system, developed in-
house through it own development efforts, called the
Milk Collection Station.

 EMT(ELECTRONIC MILK TESTER)

• Age-old traditional GERBER

method of  testing milk by
chemicals has many inherent 
drawbacks, such as, human
error multistep method,
handling of corrosive chemicals
and different type of glassware.
All these add to the cost and
time of milk testing.
• But in EMT Percentage of fat
content is displayed on digital
readout.
 Working Principle of Measurement

• EMT is based on the photometric measurement of light scattered by

the milk sample. The light is scattered by the fat globules acting as
small prisms.
The Principle used can be explained as-

DILUTION

HOMOGENIZATION DIGITAL READOUT

LIGHT SCATTERING CURRENT α RAY INTENSITY

 
 CONTINUES…………….

(a)EDTA solution is used to dissolve protiens.

(b) Constant fat globule size is required by the system.
This is done by homogenizer.
(c) Light rays from a photo lamp passed through the
layer of fluid in the cuvette and are scattered
according to the sample of fat globules in the
sample.
(e)The rays that do pass through the cuvette strike a
photocell, producing a current proportional to the
light intensity. The current is fed to a digital readout
unit which gives direct fat percentage read out.
PROCESS OF MEASUREMENT
 CONTINUES……….
a).Set power switch at ON.
(b).Set battery switch at LINE/BATTERY.
(c). Fill bottle with diluents.
(d).Empty bucket for waste.
(f). Setting display at 0.00.
(g). Place milk beaker under milk intake.
(h). Push milk in, milk out.
(i). Move mix beaker to mix intake.
(j). Raise and lower handle 6 times.
(k). Push repeat button so display blinks.
(l). Push zero buttons so display reads 0.00

SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC
MODULES
 SOLAR PHTOVOLTAIC CELL

• Photovoltaic is the direct conversion of light into

electrical energy through a solar cell.
• This happens due to the physical photo effect.
• This effect is completely free of any hazardous
emissions and does not need any moving parts.
• Are made of special materials called semiconductors
such as silicon .
•  Basically, when light strikes the cell and the energy is
absorbed, light is transferred to the semiconductor.
 CONTINUES………

• The energy knocks electrons loose, allowing

them to flow freely.
• PV cells also all have one or more electric field
that acts to force electrons freed by light
absorption to flow in a certain direction.
• This flow of electrons is a current, and by placing
metal contacts on the top and bottom of the PV
cell, we can draw that current off for external use
 SPV MODULE

• Photovoltaic cells are connected

electrically in series and/or
parallel circuits to produce higher
voltages, currents and power
levels.
• Photovoltaic modules consist of
PV cell circuits sealed in an
environmentally protective
laminate.
• Photovoltaic panels include one
or more PV modules.
PRODUCTION OF SPV MODULE

STREET LIGHTING SYSTEM

This system provides un-

interrupted light and is
completely noiseless,
smoke-free and free from
fire hazards. A storage
battery charged by the SPV
Modules and provides
lighting during night hours.
It automatically turns on in
night and shuts off during
the day. 
 SPV WATER PUMPING SYSTEM

• Solar Photovoltaic Water pumping system are

modular, flexible and are of two basic types i.e.
Shallow well type and Deep well type. DC power is
generated at site itself and fed to the pump. They are
ideally suitable for those areas where conventional
supply is non-existent.
