many sample preparation accessories to handle all forms of sample, including dry
powders, aerosols and samples dispersed in a liquid. You may have many sample
handling accessories or none at all depending on your particular requirements.
Consult the individual accessory manuals to identify the features of the sample
preparation accessories.
The computer system is a stand alone computer that runs the Malvern
software. It is the Malvern software that analyses the raw data from the optical
unit to give the size of the particles. Once completed the result can be further
analysed or reports printed etc.
The following section gives a more detailed overview of the features of the optical
unit.
The optical unit
The optical unit consists of three components; the transmitter À, the receiver Á
and the sample area Â. Each of these components are identified in the diagram
below.
The purpose of the optical unit is to collect the information from the scattered
light when a laser is passed through the sample to be measured.
The transmitter
The transmitter contains the laser and electronics that produces the laser beam
that is used in the measurement of the sample.
The main features of the transmitter are on the transmitter end panel. Use the
figure below to identify these features and their function.
