Liquid flow imaging dispersion unit: Combining laser diffraction and shape analysis in one system

Anton Paar has introduced the Liquid Flow Imaging Dispersion Unit, a powerful accessory for the recently launched Litesizer DIF series. This innovative unit combines laser diffraction and dynamic image analysis (DIA) in a single measurement process for enhanced particle insight without switching systems or software.

Whether you are looking for outlier particles, want to get more insights on your agglomerates, or are quantifying sphericity, the Liquid Flow Imaging Dispersion Unit is engineered for applications where particle size alone isn’t enough. It delivers single particle detection and shape analysis from 5 µm to 2,500 µm – without switching systems. All measurement workflows and data analysis are integrated into the intuitive Kalliope software.

Additional features include:

• Liquid-based dispersion to ensure gentle sample handling and powerful dispersion
• Compact, space-saving design with no additional lab space needed
• Tool-free mounting/dismounting for fast cleaning and easy maintenance
• Full integration with Anton Paar’s renowned particle analysis software

As Anton Paar’s leading solution for laser diffraction-based particle sizing, Litesizer DIF offers unmatched performance from 0.01 µm to 3.5 mm, powerful 10 mW and 25 mW solid state lasers, and the widest diffraction-detection angle range on the market (0.01° to 170°). Engineered for reliability, it features a rugged metal housing, isolated optical bench, built-in safety features, and the Quick-Click system for effortless switching between dispersion units. 

With the addition of the Liquid Flow Imaging Dispersion Unit, the Litesizer DIF series delivers a complete solution for advanced particle characterisation across industries such as pharmaceuticals, additive manufacturing, or battery materials.
