ParticleSense

Online Particle Counter

The ParticleSense performance reliability, ease of use, and measurement capability make it an ideal choice for online filter
performance monitoring and optimisation. This is most clearly demonstrated in the ParticleSense’s ability to detect filter
breakthrough often hours in advance of any NTU change.

● Water Treatment ● Reverse Osmosis Treatment


● Wastewater Treatment ● Parts Washing
● Reverse Osmosis Pretreatment ● Food & Beverage
● Membrane Filtration ● Pharmaceutical

Close to two decades of customer experience with ParticleSense has proven the effectiveness of this technology to take water
quality monitoring to the next level. ParticleSense is the right choice if the optimisation demands of your application are not
being met by relative and less sensitive measurements of water quality like those provided by a turbidity meter or SDI test
systems.

Principle of Operation minutes and ParticleSense does not need to be returned to the
factory to be calibrated. Unlike most other particle counters, the
ParticleSense is designed to “count” particles in a liquid sample ParticleSense does not require the use of an external computer
from 2 to 750 micron in diameter and "size" particles ranging or software package to setup or calibrate the instrument.
from 2 to 125 microns in diameter. Particles larger than 125
micron will be sized as >125 micron particles. Particles are
divided into user adjustable size channels (or bins). The number
of particles counted in each of these bins can be reported as
counts per millilitre, counts per 100 millilitre, or Raw Counts.

The sensor consists of a flow cell with two transparent windows


that sit directly between a 780nm infrared laser diode and a light
detector. The laser’s tightly focused beam of light is transmitted
across the flow cell and onto the detector which converts light
energy into electrical voltage. Sample flow passes through the
flow cell, so that any particles in the sample will pass through
the laser beam. This causes a small percentage of the light to be
blocked from reaching the detector. The light blockage then
appears as a change in the detector’s output voltage. The
amplitude of the pulse correlates to the size of the particle. The
output of the sensor is a stream of pulses of varying amplitude,
each corresponding to a particle. This type of device is known as
a light blocking or light extinction particle counter.

Calibration of the ParticleSense using Polystyrene Latex (PSL)


spheres is very user friendly and can be performed in just a few
