LISST-Portable
The LISST-Portable is the world's first (and still the only) battery powered portable particle analyzer. It can be used in the field, on a boat, factory floor, or in the laboratory. Using the same small-angle laser scattering principles as our other LISST products, the LISST-Portable analyzes samples in a wet-state and obtains particle size distribution, and particle volume concentration.

The LISST-Portable incorporates a mixing chamber with a pump capability to keep the largest particles suspended. At only 7 kgs and housed in a moisture-tight, shock-resistant case, the LISST-Portable is built for the rigors of transport and field use.

The LISST-Portable includes a rechargeable battery pack, a microprocessor for control, data processing and data storage, and a touch panel display for programming and display of the size distribution of analyzed samples. Data are fully processed on board and stored as ASCII files, which can subsequently be offloaded to a PC.

The touch panel display gives the user the option to enter notes for each sample. During sampling, graphical step-by-step instructions guides the user through the measuring procedure and instant feedback is given to the user if the concentration is too high or too low, or if the background (baseline) measurement is not of sufficiently high quality. 

Numerous parameters are computed and stored with the ASCII file, such as the voluem concentration in each size bin, mean and median (D50) grain size, D10, D90, D16, and D85 grain size, standard deviation, surface area, optical transmission, total volume concentration, and the volume concentration in the <64 µm size range.

Finally, the LISST-Portable is the only particle size analyzer in the world that gives the user to select a random shape model for inversion of the scattering data to volume distribution. This option is selectable on a sample-by-sample basis for maximum versatility.
