SLOT 100

Structured Light Obscuration Time Analysis

Structured Light Obscuration Time Analysis
The Morphious SLOT 100 is a brand new development in PSA. With propriatory illumination technology this system is prepared for demanding applications in the future. The system can be used for a variety of applications. With a simple Add on unit to the existing Morphious LOT 100, the system allows to measure deep into the nano range up to the macro range. With this technology a better assessment can be made to the true morphometric parameters as opposed to the LOT 100. The Application field is broad: i.e. Characterization of particles in sprays, dry powder, suspensions and liquids. The sophisticated technology offers a versatile tool to characterize complex data way beyond conventional approaches. The unique distribution plots generated reveal the true nature of the particles.

The Ultimate Particle Size & Shape Analyzer

With our cluster plot software routines we can classify various particles and determine any interrelation between the nature of the particle and the process conditions. Our interactive mosaic interface allows each individual particle to be analyzed right from the various graphs (i.e. histograms, cluster plots). The distributions are presented in either standard number and volume plots.

Laser Obscuration Time Analysis  is a Particle Size Analysis technique based on true physical paramters  such as [time] and [speed]. Laser Diffraction  PSA techniques however are based on false assumptions. See more details in section “What is wrong with Laser Diffraction”.
The combination LOT (Laser Obscuration Time) with Image Analysis (LOT I A) is utterly versatile and can be used for many PSA application where other techniques fail.

Advantages of LOT and IA
* Laser and video channel in one instrument!
* Does not assume all particles are spheres like laser diffraction.
* Direct measurement of correct particle size, not influenced by physical or optical properties like refractive -or absorbance index.
* Detection of minor fractions.
* High concentrations.
* Transparent and metal particles no problem.
* Particle range of 0.2 µm to 3.6 mm.
* Many accessories available to measure sprays, dry powders and suspensions.
* Bench-top as well as  On/At- Line techniques available.
* Easy-to use, powerful software.
