1)Fourier and Reverse Fourier Optical System
The Bettersizer 2600 is superior in the combination of Fourier and inverse Fourier designs. This smart design allows, on the one hand, the detection of scattered light in a very wide angular range from 0.016° to 165°. On the other hand, in contrast to the inverse Fourier design, the particles do not have to lie on one plane – the simultaneously accurate measurement of small and large particles is therefore achieved.

Features of the combination of Fourier and inverse Fourier design 

  • Spherical detector array: Forward, lateral and backward detectors in 92 pieces in total;
  • Super large Fourier lens;
  • Small footprint: Compact design to save space.

2)Intuitive and Powerful Software

  • Intuitive user interface and orderly operation
  • Real-time PSD curve for determining the optimal measurement conditions
  • Fully automatic measurement routine
  • Automatic cleaning routine
  • Automatic data backup and highly customizable reports
  • Direct conversion according to Fraunhofer and Mie evaluation models
  • Switch between wet and dry dispersion modules with one click

3)Wet Dispersion

BT-802 is designed for particle size measurement with water as the medium.

BT-802 is made up of an ABS shell. The components of it include a centrifugal pump, a peristaltic pump, an ultrasonic disperser, pinch valves, a control circuit, etc. The stirring speed is adjustable from 300 – 2500 r/min. The built-in ultrasonic system (50 W) helps weak agglomerates separate.

4)Dry Dispersion 

BT-902 is suitable for dry powder measurements. The gas used can be compressed air, nitrogen or other noble gases.

BT-902 is made up of an electromagnetic vibration feeder, a venturi pipe, a gas circuit, an electric circuit, a pressure sensor, etc.

5)Dynamic Imaging 

PIC-1: Modular Dual-Camera Imaging System Design

The PIC-1 features a dual-camera dynamic imaging system, making it a leading dynamic imaging module that seamlessly integrates with the Bettersizer 2600. As the dispersion system transports particles through the sample cell, the high-speed cameras capture and convert images to digital format for real-time analysis. Going beyond mere particle size distribution, this capability allows scientists, researchers, and engineers to utilize particle shape characteristics for a deeper understanding of particles.

Broadened Insight with Modular Imaging Expertise

Extended Measurement Range

The seamless combination of laser diffraction and image analysis broadens the measurement range of Bettersizer 2600 to an impressive 3,500 µm. Samples with extremely broad distributions are now possible to measure, such as river sediment.

Detailed Particle Parameters

The PIC-1 offers comprehensive data by capturing real-time particle images, allowing customers to study individual particles in detail. With the ability to analyze 24 particle size and shape parameters, the PIC-1 provides an in-depth understanding of particle characteristics.

Oversized Particle Detection for Powder Consistency

The combination of laser diffraction and image analysis can sensitively detect oversized particles that are statistically underrepresented within a wide-distributed sample, such as oversized grain, agglomerates, air bubbles, etc.
