OPERATION
THEORY
Utilizing the principle of "near angle light
scatter", a revolving laser beam passes through the walls of
a glass container of a flow-thru cell. When it is directed through
a central "sensitive zone" the PC-2300 not only counts
the particles in suspension, but tabulates their size as well. The
analog signals generated by the light pulses are routed to a computer
and digitized. |

CALIBRATION
Spectrex provides three sealed calibration standards
with each unit. Each standard contains a precise number of NIST
traceable polystyrene spheres of known size in suspension and are
sealed with inert Argon gas. These standards have a proven stability
of more than 10 years and provide efficient calibration within 10
minutes. |

SuperCount
SOFTWARE
Developed by Spectrex, the custom interfacing electronics
and proprietary software provide an easy means of analyzing and saving
data generated by the PC-2300. SuperCount provides instant sizing information
and histogram of size distribution in addition to indicating:
- Absolute
Counts
- Mean
Size
- Mass
Distribution
|
- Percentage
Distribution
- Standard
Deviation
- Total
Suspended Solids
|
The
dilution factor can be automatically computed to give absolute count for
liquids as dense as sludge! SuperCount also is loaded with a special bonus
program for hydraulic fluids* and Phi classifications.
