Linkoptik LT3600 Laser Diffraction System
The LT3600 system provides the ability to measure over a maximum size range of 0.02 - 3600 microns using a single lens and includes a solid-state laser (max 20 mW, 638 nm) and laser power monitor along with a unique optical path configuration and a 3-D multi-element silicon photo-diode array covering an extra-large, continuous physical detection angle with no dead detection zone.
Spatial filter and polarization combined with optical fiber technology eliminates the need for a pinhole. Tilted and trapezoid cell windows ensure continuous measurement in an extra-large angle range and elimination of total reflection.
Multi-element detector array ensures automatic and rapid alignment. The software includes correction of anomalous change of airy disk (ACAD) and an improved inversion algorithm with high resolution and sensitivity at a data acquisition rate of up to 20 kHz.
