Door: Technex BV Analysing foam parameters and controlling surfactant effects!
The SITA FoamTester analyses the characteristics of surfactant-containing liquids easy, fast and precise with automated measuring sequences. The measuring device uses innovative optical measuring methods to determine foam characteristics such as foam volume, stability, drainage as well as foam structure.
•Fast contact-free and high-resolution optical scan of the foam surface with structured light
•Reliable and continuous detection of the foam-liquid interface even with opaque liquids
•Fast and high-resolution measurement of the foam structure for the entire foam level, analysis of the different bubble sizes and other parameters
•Fully-automated measuring process including sample conditioning and cleaning
•Individually programmable sequences for generating and analysing foam
•Reproducible foam generation with reliable SITA stirring method and flexible test parameters
•Individually programmable sequences for generating and analysing foam as well as easy operation with pre-set or customised experiments
The foam testing system consists of a removable measuring vessel with stirring unit, an integrated sample reservoir with magnetic stirrer, a cleaning system with external water source, an automatic optical measuring system and a touch display for operation directly at the device as well as the software SITA-FoamLab
Applications:
Cosmetics, cleaning agents, inks, paints and coatings, cooling lubricants, pharmacy, plastics manufacturing, paper manufacturing, textile chemistry, beverage production
