For medical device manufacturers, the presence of undetected contaminants could make their product ineffective in a critical moment, compromising a patient's safety. For hard-drive manufacturers, unwanted particles could cause a product malfunction. Materials analysis and cleanliness testing is vital for manufacturers in all industries to ensure safety, reliability, customer satisfaction and product integrity. Engineers, chemists, researchers and manufacturers must be able to definitively identify the particles in their products before they become available for use-particularly those who manufacture critical environment components.
Liquid Particle Counting is a highly effective method to determine the quality and cleanliness of vital components, including trays, molded plastic parts, medical devices, and cleanroom consumables like wipes and swabs.
Liquid Particle Counting is one means of cleanliness testing and materials analysis, which measures the size and distribution of particles in a liquid sample: The particle distribution and particle size of the liquid sample is measured according to the scattered light from the laser diode of the detector. The properties of the scattered light help determine the particle size. The size range of the particles measured depends on the detector used.
To assess contamination on a solid material, particulates are agitated or dislodged from the solid using dionized water and the appropriate method for the material being analyzed.
Liquid Particle Counting is an effective and efficient way to ensure your product is free of contaminants and other unwanted particles-and prove to your customers that safety and quality are your priorities.
