New Insitec LPS provides complete solution
for continuous wet particle size measurement
The new Malvern Instruments
Insitec LPS (Liquid Process Sizer)
Many industrial particle sizing applications now require the continuous
measurement of particle size in liquid streams. To provide a complete
solution for this requirement, Malvern Instruments has introduced
the new Insitec LPS (Liquid Process Sizer).
Designed for continuous industrial use at- or on-line, the Insitec
LPS can accurately and reproducibly measure a very wide range of
process streams, from highly concentrated mineral slurries through
to lipid emulsions. Each component of the system – sampler,
pre-diluter, cascade diluter, measurement cell, and software –
can be individually tailored to the process, ensuring that even
the most challenging applications can be tackled effectively.
The Insitec LPS sampler extracts 2.5 ml liquid slugs from the full
pipe section. There is never any cessation of sample flow, thus
avoiding blockages. The process interface is designed for high pressure
(where necessary) and for easy installation and maintenance.
The Insitec LPS pre-diluter and cascade diluter work together to
bring the sample to an optimal concentration for analysis whilst
avoiding dilution shock. These components have few moving parts,
are self-cleaning and designed to minimize diluent consumption.
Consistent dilution is achieved efficiently with no manual intervention.
At the heart of the Insitec LPS is Malvern’s proven and industrially
rugged Insitec laser diffraction-based particle size analyzer. With
abrasion-resistant, self-cleaning sapphire windows, and a purge
to prevent condensation, this is an analyzer designed for 24/7 operation.
It requires no calibration and little maintenance. The data produced
are presented using established Malvern Link and RTSizer data handling
systems. Integration with existing control platforms is straightforward,
and so is customized data presentation.
