The spectral properties and phase diagram of the exact integrable spin one quantum chain introduced by Alcaraz and Bariev are presented. The model has a U(1) symmetry and its integrability is associated to an unknown R-matrix whose dependence on the spectral parameters is not of difference form. The associated Bethe ansatz equations, that fix the eigenspectra, are distinct from those associated to other known integrable spin models. The model has a free parameter $t_p$. We show that at the special point $t_p=1$ the model gets an extra U(1) symmetry and reduces to the deformed SU(3) Perk-Schultz model at a special value of its anisotropy $q=\exp(i2\pi/3)$ andin the presence of an external magnetic field. Our analysis is done either by solving the associated Bethe-ansatz equations or by direct diagonalization of thequantum Hamiltonian for small lattice sizes. The phase diagram is calculated by exploring the consequences of conformal invariance on the finite-size corrections of the Hamiltonian eigenspectrum. The model exhibits a critical phase ruled by $c=1$ conformal field theory separated from a massive phase by first-order phase transitions.
