Anton Paar’s PSA series incorporates fifty years of experience. The world’s first laser diffraction particle size analyzer – the first-ever PSA – was invented in 1967. The three models PSA 990, PSA 1090, and PSA 1190 are designed to measure a wide range of particle sizes in liquid dispersions or dry powders.
Key Features
Multiple-laser technology for a wide range of particle sizes
This multiple-laser technology provides you with an extensive range of measurable particle sizes. The single-laser PSA 990 covers a wide measuring range of 0.2 μm to 500 μm. For an even broader range, PSA 1090 and PSA 1190 have a unique optical design for diffraction analysis, which includes multiple lasers. While PSA 1090 has been designed with two lasers to resolve particles as small as 40 nanometers, PSA 1190 contains an additional third laser to cover the full measurement range of up to 2.5 millimeters.
Wet and dry samples with just one setup
PSA instruments are the only particle size analyzers that can be configured with both fully integrated liquid and dry dispersion modes in one instrument. This unique design eliminates the need for the operator to handle several accessories or make manual adjustments. The software enables the switching between liquid and dry dispersion modes with a single mouse click, which saves time and prevents operation errors. There is no need to exchange the hardware, re-validate, or re-align sensitive optics when switching between dispersion modes.
