SALD-2300 High throughput High efficiency High analysis capability

Powerful new functions have been added to accurately evaluate the change in
particle size distribution.

Particle size distribution can have a major effect on the characteristics desired for a given application or
objective, or on the performance and quality of a final product.
A particle size analyzer with the ability to precisely measure particle size distribution is an essential tool in
today’s laboratory. The SALD-2300 is that tool. With a variety of optional units and application software
packages, the SALD-2300 can easily address the application requirements in a variety of industries, including
pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, foods, drinks, pigments, paints, ceramics and electronic materials.

The following three functions have been added to ensure the accurate evaluation of

changes in particle size distribution, which is caused by time course or particle concentration.

1 Wide particle concentration range from 0.1ppm to 20%.

2 Continuous measurement function at minimum 1-second intervals

Laser Diffraction Particle Size Analysis?
3 Wide measurement range from 17nm to 2500 µm
Particle size distribution can be calculated using the light intensity distribution pattern of scattered light which is
generated from sample particles when laser irradiates them.
This is the main particle size analysis method because it has excellent properties such as a wide measurement range,
a short measurement time, and the ability to measure both wet and dry samples.
Please refer to page 19 for the measurement principle. SALD-2300 maintains data compatibility with previous products such as the SALD-2001, SALD-2101, and SALD-2201.
