Hydro S sample dispersion unit

 

Many laboratories need to measure their samples in dispersants other than water and need to minimize the solvent usage as much as possible.

In some cases, sample materials are not plentiful and a smaller volume sample dispersion unit is a sensible choice to minimize sample consumption while retaining the benefits of totally automated sample dispersion and measurement.

• Dispersion Type
  Wet, Capacity 50 – 120 ml
• Dispersion Mechanism
  Continuously variable single shaft pump and stirrer.
  Continuously variable ultrasonic probe.
• Operation
  All functions controlled by the system software.
  Fully automatic operation via SOPs, manual operation via on-screen operating dialogues.
