Pi Raptor Portable – Water Quality Edition
The Pi Raptor Portable is a robust particle size and shape analyzer, ideal for the Water Quality and Water Testing industry. Utilizing advanced Dynamic Image Analysis, it delivers precise, reliable data crucial identifying and quantifying contamination in water.
Features
- Detailed Morphological Information: for identifying specific contaminants, such as algae, microplastics, or sediment particles.
- Shape-Based Identification: Some contaminants (like algae or plankton) have distinct shapes that influence their behaviour and impact on water quality. DIA helps distinguish between different particle types, which other techniques cannot.
- Identification of Irregular Shapes microplastics which are challenging for other techniques
- Differentiation by Transparency and Texture categorizes particles based on their colour or transparency, helping identify suspended solids or biological contaminants like bacteria clusters or algae.
- Automated Counting and Classification: Rapidly process and analyze thousands of particles per second, making them ideal for large-scale water monitoring projects.
- Time Efficiency: Automated analysis compared to manual microscopy, reducing the time and effort required to measure and count particles accurately.
- Preservation of Samples: As Dynamic Image Analysis involves capturing particle images in their natural state, the sample is not destroyed, allowing for further chemical or biological analysis if necessary.
- In Situ Monitoring: Portable Dynamic Image Analysis systems can be deployed directly in the field, providing real-time feedback on particle concentrations and characteristics.
- Dynamic Image Analysis helps ensure compliance by identifying residual particles in treated water.
- By monitoring the size and growth of algae cells in water bodies, Dynamic Image Analysis assists in identifying harmful algal blooms (HABs) early, enabling preventive measures.
- Automated systems eliminate the variability and bias associated with manual particle counting techniques, improving the reliability and consistency of results
- Dynamic Image Analysis systems integrate with data management software, providing detailed logs for trend analysis and historical comparisons
Dynamic Image Analysis provides greater precision, efficiency, and versatility compared to traditional methods for particle measurement in water quality monitoring. Its ability to capture and classify particles in real time, differentiate complex shapes, and handle high-throughput data makes it an invaluable tool for ensuring water safety and maintaining environmental compliance.
