Description

For big improvements that help you spot small differences.

The LS 13 320 XR offers best-in-class particle size distribution data from advanced PIDS technology,* which enables high-resolution measurements and an expanded dynamic range. Like the LS 13 320, the XR particle size analyzer provides fast, accurate results, and helps you streamline workflows to optimize efficiency. Some big improvements help you reliably spot small differences that can have a huge impact on your particle analysis data.

  • Direct measurement range from 10 nm – 3,500 µm
  • Automatically highlights pass/fail results for faster quality control
  • Enhanced software that simplifies method creation for standardized measurements
  • New control standards to adequately verify instrument/module performance

Details matter. Minuscule changes in your sample material can result in big differences in a finished product. That´s why the LS 13 320 XR laser diffraction particle size distribution analyzer uses 132 detectors to provide higher resolution for more accurate results, together with an expanded measurement range from 10 nm – 3,500 μm.

Beckman-Coulter Life Science Solution

  • Expanded measurement range: 10 nm – 3,500 μm- Provides real (not extrapolated) analytical data down to 10 nm, and high-resolution measurements up to 3,500 μm
  • Enhanced PIDS technology: Polarization Intensity Differential Scattering- Enables more precise raw data detection and increased detector sensitivity of vertical and horizontal polarized scattered light for sub-μm particle size analysis – a measurement quality previously unavailable
  • Advanced auto modality- No knowledge about particle size distribution (e.g., multiple fractions, narrow distribution) needed prior to measurement in order to obtain a correct result
  • Optimized, intuitive software
  • Requires 2 clicks from Start Measurement to result
  • Includes an integrated optical constants database
  • Helpful user diagnostics keep you informed
  • Streamlines workflows to save time
  • Validation- This is a must for Good Manufacturing Practices and other regulatory requirements.
Therefore the LS 13 320 XR analyzer supports GMP with specific tools for Installation Qualification (IQ) and Operational Qualification (OQ).
