Dynamic image analysis particle size analyzer QICPIC LIXELL

wet type

With its flexible and modular layout, the combination of image analysis sensor QICPIC and wet dispersion unit LIXELL is the most versatile system configuration for analysis of the size and shape of particles in the range from 1 µm to 2,000 µm in liquid media. With different cuvettes and accessory sets, numerous applications starting from a sample volume of 20 ml can be realised. Depending on the setup, LIXELL can be run in flow-through mode or in closed-loop operation. The system is suitable both for standard measurement setups and for experimental layouts. For small sample volumes from 20 ml, we recommend that the suspension or emulsion under analysis is fed in via dosing syringes. Application Set I contains a basic set of equipment with 10 ml and 50 ml dosing syringes, taps, distributors, connections and tubes. If larger sample volumes are available, the measurement configuration can be operated as a flow-through setup or as a closed measuring circuit depending on the requirements of the application. Application Set II contains a peristaltic pump, a 2,000 ml beaker, a magnetic stirrer and the corresponding tubing to set up an external circuit. The suspension or emulsion is homogenised with the magnetic stirrer in the beaker. It is then fed as a continuous product flow to the measurement cuvette via the peristaltic pump.
