Making measurements Chapter 4
Mastersizer 3000 Page 4-47
Extend the result
(continued)
To enter the size band data to add to the Mastersizer result;
use the control icons at the top of this Editor window to add
or remove size bands, as required.
The data entered will be dependent upon the technique you
are using to extend the result. Values for the size of each
band and the cumulative percentage below each size band
can then be entered by clicking within the table and adding
the value. The only requirement is that 100% of the volume
of material must be present below the largest size specified
in the table.
Clicking Ok will store the extended result data as part of the
SOP settings.
Alternatively the Allow editing of the external result during
a measurement option will allow the external result to be
modified for each measurement of an SOP. Each time the
SOP is run, users will be able to enter new undersize data
bands
Note: When the extended size band set overlaps the Master-
sizer result, it is assumed that the extended result will be
correct. Therefore the Mastersizer result will be truncated
and renomalized to fit with the new extended result data set.
