| Definition | A tri-laser diffraction particle size and shape analyser designed to measure particle size from nanometre to millimetre range. It is available for both wet and dry dispersions of particles. A laser beam illuminates a dispersed particle sample and the size distribution is calculated from the scattered light pattern. This scattered light is measured at various angles from 0.02 to 163 degrees. This is achieved by using two detector arrays and three lasers that illuminate the sample from different angles. The SYNC particle sizer can be equipped with all red lasers or a combination of red and blue lasers. It uses Microtrac MRBs modified Mie scattering theory which produces particle size distributions for both spherical and non-spherical particles as well as for both transparent and absorbing materials. This is combined with dynamic image analysis to provide particle shape and material information. It has a measurement range of 10 nm - 4 mm. It has a laser class of red 780 nm, and blue 405 nm, and a measuring time from 10 to 30 seconds. It can operate between 5 and 40 degC. |
