Understanding agrochemical spray behaviour
The Arable Group using Spraytec droplet size analyzer from Malvern Instruments to improve understanding of agrochemical spray behaviour.
Parsum systems are robust industrial instruments designed to make particle size and velocity measurements in dry powders, directly in the process line.
With a measurement range from 50 to 2500 microns, they complement the Malvern Insitec range of on-line particle size analysers, which measure from 0.5 to 1000 micron in dry powders and wet suspensions.
Craig Howarth, Business Director for Malvern Process Systems, sees the move as an obvious extension of the Malvern range: "Malvern Instruments has pioneered the development and application of in-process particle characterisaton systems.

Applications and product specialists from Malvern Instruments are participating in the XVth International Congress on Rheology, in Monterey, California from 3-8 August 2008
Our Insitec systems are enjoying unprecedented success throughout all sectors of manufacturing industry, as process optimisation and efficiency continue to be watchwords in today's industrial environment.
We are therefore very pleased to be working with Parsum and adding their products to our portfolio.
The Parsum ability to measure larger particles of up to 2500 micron means that we can now meet particle sizing needs across an even broader range of process applications.
Parsum systems are very well-established in Germany, with many existing installations and a growing customer base.
We at Malvern Instruments are looking forward to introducing this superb process tool to a world-wide audience".
Parsum GmbH was founded in 1997 and came out of the Technical University of Chemnitz.
The company has developed a new, patented measuring principle known as Fiber-optical Spatial Filtering.
Its products are process devices for industrial use that require minimal installation effort and are easy to integrate in processes and facilities.
There are no adjustable mechanical parts and systems require no optical calibration.
Joint managing director of Parsum GmbH, Mr Stefan Dietrich, said: "Our agreement with Malvern Instruments is a very important step, allowing Parsum systems to be sold into process industries around the world.
Choosing the right partner has been critically important for us. Request free introductory details about products from Malvern Instruments ...
