With a measurement range from 10 nm to 2000 µm, the laser particle sizer ANALYSETTE 22 NanoTec offers true entry into the nano range. This is achieved through the use of a second laser beam that is directed at the sample from behind, allowing for detection of the back-scattering light.
The patented capability to move the measurement cell within the beam path of the optical system during the measurement also results in a very high number of effective detection channels, which can be over 500 for the NanoTec model, which leads to a correspondingly high number of particle size classes and therefore a very high resolution.
The special shape of the detector combined with intelligent analysis software also allows information to be obtained about the particle shape.
