Overview

Product overview

The Classic Series are laser diffraction particle size analyzers based on Mie scattering and Fraunhofer diffraction, built to ISO 13320. The series has five models: the PSA-2L2308A combines wet (0.01 to 2000 μm) and dry (0.1 to 2000 μm) dispersion in one unit, the PSA-LA2800A and PSA-LA2800B are wet models (up to 2000 μm and 1500 μm), and the PSA-LD3008A and PSA-LD3008B are dry models (up to 2000 μm and 1200 μm). Accuracy and repeatability are ≤1% or ≤0.5% (CRM D50) depending on model.

A convergent-light Fourier transform optical path with dual-laser orthogonal light extends the measuring range, and a dual-beam, multi-spectral detection system with side-light scattering improves precision. Automatic optical path alignment uses four hybrid stepping motors. In automatic mode one key runs the full wet cycle, including water supply, ultrasonic dispersion, circulation, testing and cleaning, in about 2 minutes, or the dry cycle in about 1 minute.

Software offers free, R-R and log-normal distributions, mesh size classification and comparison of multiple results, with an optional audit trail for 21 CFR Part 11. The series is used for quality control in industrial production and research.
