HELOS & Co
Laser Diffraction | Size and Distribution
The proven HELOS series – with its classical laser diffraction setup deploying a parallel beam – offers a powerful technology for particle size analysis of powders, granules, suspensions, emulsions, sprays and numerous other disperse systems. A size range from below 0.1 μm to 8,750 μm is mastered. The modular system design, together with a great variety of dispersing and dosing units, provides a flexible adaptation to the most diverse industrial and research applications.
In the early 1980s, Sympatec introduced a breakthrough innovation which was leading laser diffraction to another dimension: dry powder dispersion for even the finest, cohesive powders with RODOS. And with the R-series of our laser diffraction sensor HELOS, new benchmarks for precision and accuracy have been achieved. Latest improvements comprise the enhanced application of parameter-free Fraunhofer evaluation down to the submicron regime (below 1 μm), a great measuring signal frequency for best resolution with range combination technology and even more powerful evaluation modes for both, Fraunhofer and Mie.
