LS-609 is a new intelligent and high-performance full-automated laser  particle size analyzer. The imported He-Ne laser emitter as light source  can realize shorter preheating time and more stable laser power. The  modern intelligent measurement control & analysis software and  full-automated sample feeding system improve the user experience  greatly, LS-609 owns more concise & effective measurement process  and more stable & reliable results, it’s easier to compare among  measurement reports.

Applications: Measure the particle size distribution of powder or latex.

Principle: Light is an electromagnetic wave. When light meets  with particles on it way of traveling, the interaction between light and  particles will result in deviations of part of the light, which is  called light scattering. The bigger the scattering angle is, the  particle size will be smaller, the smaller the scattering angle is, the  particle size will be bigger. The particle analyzer instruments will  analysis the particle distribution according to this physical character  of the light wave.
