THE FC200M IS PART OF A FAMILY OF HIGHLY SOPHISTICATED DIGITAL IMAGING SYSTEMS, THAT ARE BY PRODUCTS FROM A SERIES OF COLLABORATIVE STUDIES IN LIGHT, OPTICS, AND SAMPLE TRANSPORT, CARRIED OUT WITH THE COOPERATION OF THE UNIVERSITY DE LIEGE IN BELGIUM.
NEW HIGH RESOLUTION IMAGING TECHNOLOGY
This high resolution imaging technology, is accomplished in part, by using special backlighting techniques focused from behind the sample. An adjustable range, monochromatic, blue light source has been shown to provide optimal contrast conditions for the particles, and virtually eliminate diffraction. The light is collimated, and acts as a high definition caliper. In the case of liquids and suspensions, the light flashes simultaneously with a high speed, high definition camera, for extremely robust particle definitions.
OCCHIO FC200M PARTICLE CHARACTERISTIC ANALYZER FOR PARTICLES SUSPENDED IN LIQUID
MONOCHROMATIC COLLIMATED BACKLIGHT ACTS LIKE A CALIPER, AND PROVIDES RESOLUTION UNATTAINABLE WITH WHITE LIGHT OR LASER DIFFRACTION
TELECENTRIC LENS- IMAGE MAGNIFICATION IS INDEPENDENT OF THE OBJECTS DISTANCE OR POSITION IN THE FIELD OF VIEW
FC200M AUTOMATIC PARTICLE CHARACTERISTIC ANALYZER DEDICATED TO ANALYZING PARTICLES IN SUSPENSIONS.
A SPECIAL MEMBRANE PUMP CAPABLE OF TRANSPORTING 0-2,000 ml PER MINUTE, IS USED FOR APPLICATIONS WHERE PARTICLE BREAKAGE IS A CONCERN.
PARTICLE SIZE PARAMETERS: 8 nm to 1 mm
STANDARD CAMERA RESOLUTION: 6.6 MILLION PIXELS
PIXEL SIZE: 3.5 MICRONS
HIGH RESOLUTION CAMERA:10 MILLION PIXELS
PIXEL SIZE: 1.67 MICRONS
THIS EASILY MAINTAINED PARALLEL SLIDE FLOWCELL, CAN BE ADJUSTED FROM 50 MICRONS TO 1 MILLIMETER, WITH SPECIAL SPACERS, TO ALLOW FOR THE ACCURATE ANALYSIS OF MATERIALS DOWN TO 200 nm IN SIZE, SUCH AS PROTEIN AGGREGATES.
OVERHEAD STIRRER AND
STAINLESS CONICAL BEAKER
OPTION KEEPS PARTICLES
IN SUSPENSION DURING ANALYSIS FOR MEMBRANE AND PERILSTATIC PUMP EQUIPPED MODELS
THE EASY TO USE CALLISTO SOFTWARE ALLOWS FOR ROBUST PARTICLE CHARACTERIZATION WITH THE CLICK OF A MOUSE, INCLUDING SEVERAL NEWLY DEFINED SHAPE PARAMETERS.
OCCHIO DIGITAL IMAGE ANALYZERS HAVE THE ABILITY TO DETECT AND QUANTIFY BOTH PARTICLE SIZE AND PARTICLE SHAPE, PAVING THE WAY FOR THE ADVANCED ANALYSIS OF PARTICLES IN BOTH LIQUID AND SOLID FORMS.
CORRELATIONS TO OTHER PARTICLE SIZE ANALYSIS METHODS, LIKE SIEVE ANALYSIS AND LASER DIFFRACTION, ARE SEAMLESSLY EMPLOYED. EVEN SHAPE PARAMETERS LIKE LENGTH, FLATNESS, AND ANGULARITY IN AGGREGATES, OR THE LENGTH OF STRINGY PARTICLES LIKE SHREDDED CHEESE, OR TOBACCO, ARE POSSIBLE.
ONCE A BASIC CORRELATION HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED, THE RESULTS ARE FINE TUNED WITH THE OCCHIO CORRELATION PROGRAM, ALLOWING FOR TURNKEY SOLUTIONS TO PARTICLE CHARACTERIZATION.
