SOPAT MM-2 — Inline analysis of microparticles, droplets, and microscopic structures

High-resolution probe for observing biological systems, viscous emulsions, and concentrated suspensions directly in the medium.

SOPAT MM-2
Measurement principle

SOPAT MM-2

Photo-optical analysis captures images directly in the process medium. Software detects objects and calculates size, shape, population, and distributions over time.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I confirm that this model fits the application?

Selection is confirmed from material type, expected range, concentration, operating conditions, and measurement objective; a sample or application test may be evaluated when needed.

Is installation always the same?

No. Connection, position, accessories, cleaning, and point representativeness are defined for each process.

Can the data be integrated into the process?

Yes. Integration strategy depends on system configuration, method validation, and the user’s automation architecture.
