Particle Insight
Dynamic Image Analyzer / Particle Shape Analyzer

The Particle Insight is a state-of-the art dynamic image analyzer which is ideal for applications where the shape of raw materials, not just the diameter, is critical to raw materials. The Particle Insight offers up to 28 different shape parameters analyzed and reported real-time for samples in either aqueous or organic solvent suspensions. The system operates in a range suitable for a wide variety of industrial, biological, and geological specimens from 3 µm up to 300 µm in its standard configuration. Its unique recirculating sample module and precision optics are designed to acquire and report statistically valid measurements quickly, an essential quality control capability in many manufacturing processes. The Particle Insight also has an automated fill and rinse feature allowing for true walk-away operation.

 

HPVA - 100
High Pressure Volumetric Analyzer

The HPVA instruments are designed to measure the high-pressure adsorption isotherms with hydrogen, methane, carbon dioxide and other gases using the static volumetric method. Typical applications for this instrument include catalysts, zeolites, activated carbons, carbon nanotubes, and hydrides. Understanding the adsorption characteristics of materials is critical in the research and advancement of hydrogen storage, fuel cells and batteries stack gas scrubbers, and hydrocarbon traps.

The HPVA product operating pressure ranges from high vacuum to 200 bars. The span of the sample temperature during analysis can be from cryogenic to 500 oC. Sample analysis data collection is fully automated to assure quality data and high reproducibility. In addition to the single-station model, the HPVA is available in a four-station version allowing up to four sample runs to be completed simultaneously.

MA-1040
Magnetic Analyzer

The MA-1040 Magnetic Analyzer detects and measures low levels of metallic iron content in sample materials. Whether it be ultra high-purity glass used in the manufacture of fiber optics or plastic used to produce insulation for electrical wires, knowing the concentration of metallic iron in the raw material is critical to controlling the quality of the finished product.

 

The first MA-series Magnetic Analyzer was developed to meet the expressed need of the abrasive grain industry, which primarily wanted a highly sensitive and accurate instrument for the detection and quantification of trace quantities of metallic iron in raw materials. They also needed the device to be easy to use and be able to withstand the harsh environment of a production area.

Dynamic Vapor Sorption

 

 

Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS) is the world leading gravimetric technique for studying water and organic sorption/adsorption on particulate materials. Invented by Surface Measurement Systems (SMS) in 1994, DVS revolutionized the field of gravimetric moisture sorption measurement, replacing outdated, time and labor intensive desiccators methods with intelligent computer based instrumentation; both orders of magnitude faster and more accurate than desiccator methods. The DVS family of instruments are designed, developed and produced by SMS and all include the SMS UltraBalance at the heart of the system.

DVS instruments are now used in 100’s of laboratories throughout the world, in a wide range of research as well as QA applications supporting problems in formulation, product stability, moisture uptake, packaging and product development for solid state materials.
