Introduction
This manual covers the operation and maintenance of the Spraytec system. In
simple terms the Spraytec measures the size distribution of particles in sprays. It
uses a software package for control, measurement and analysis, presenting the data
according to the user’s needs.
The aims of this manual are to:
.
Explain what the Spraytec is, how it works and the parameters it measures.
.
Explain in simple terms how the instrument analyses sprays.
.
Describe the Spraytec hardware and software components.
.
Explain how to use the instrument to make a measurement.
.
Explain how to interpret the result data, how to print data and how to ex
-
port it to other applications.
.
Identify the user maintenance and troubleshooting procedures.
.
Provide detailed information on advanced areas like alarms and triggers.

How to use this manual
Users must read the Health and Safety information in Appendix A before
operating the instrument. The information given in this appendix applies to the
Spraytec instrument itself, as well as accessories used with it.
We recommend reading this manual fully before starting the first measurement.
Those who are more familiar with laser diffraction as applied to sprays can jump
straight to Chapter 5 which is a practical tutorial on making measurements.
The manual is divided into the following three sections.
