Many questions about foam, one universal approach: The DFA100 Dynamic Foam Analyzer measures the foamability of liquids and the stability of quickly decaying or long lasting foam based on reproducible foaming and height detection. With optional modules operating in parallel, it also measures the liquid content or analyzes the foam structure with regard to bubble size and distribution. The DFA100 supports you in optimizing foam-forming products or helps you to avoid unwanted foam formation.
Applications
Firefighting foams
Flotation as a method for separating solids
Foam prevention for paints and varnishes, process and waste water, or cooling lubricants
Foam-inhibiting and foam-reducing agents (anti-foaming agents/defoamers)
Foams for washing and cleaning
Foams in food and personal care products
Surfactant development
Measuring methods
Foamability and foam stability using the optically detected height of foam created reproducibly
Foam formation behavior of heavily foaming liquids using stirring cycles
Optically detected foam bubble sizes and their statistical distribution
Moisture and drainage behavior of foam using its electrical conductivity
Carrying out a measurement up to 20 consecutive times and displaying the results together
