Dry powder system for particle sizer

Module for laser diffraction particle size analyser meets compliance requirements of 21 CFR Part 11 and ISO 13 320

With a new and novel dispersion technology, the Tornado Dry Powder System module for the LS 13 320 laser diffraction particle size analyser delivers unsurpassed results all within a compliant framework (the Tornado and LS 13 320 are 21 CFR Part 11 and ISO 13 320 compliant) The Tornado Dry Powder System is a fully integrated sample module for the particle size analysis of dry powder samples in the range from 0.4 to 2000 microns

It measures the entire sample presented to the instrument, making it fully compliant to the ISO laser diffraction standard.

Among its other benefits: the system does not require cleaning between samples; it disperses cohesive powders, such as cement or AC fine test dust, without milling fragile materials; fully automated; provides automatic feed rate (obscuration) control.

The set point for the obscuration is user selectable between 4 and 8%.

The vacuum pressure can now be adjusted and controlled by the user through software menus.

Easily loaded into the optical bench, the Tornado DPS is immediately recognised by the software and configured in just a few seconds to allow for increased productivity. Request a free brochure from Beckman Coulter ...
