Ideal for characterizing spherical, irregularly shaped and acicular (needle-like) fiber particles, agglomerations, or mixtures, the family of EyeTech particle-size and image analyzers has a size channel that employs a unique laser obscuration method that yields direct and true single-particle-size measurements. It also has an image-analysis channel that uses dynamic and/or static methods. Accurate and easy to set up, the units feature: size ranges of 0.1–3,600 µm; dynamic range of 600:1; and a high resolution of 0.33% of full scale (min. 0.2 µm). The laser channel does not assume sphericity and is not subject to effects of optical and physical properties of particles or medium (such as refractive indices, absorption, surface texture, porosity, electrical conductivity, viscosity variations, Brownian motion and thermal convection). Particles can be seen real time during measurements.
