The FlowCam® Macro – optimized for large particles
The FlowCam Macro enables the imaging and analysis of particles in the range of 300 µm to 5 mm.
The Macro reaches a flow rate of about 750 ml per minute with the help of an external peristaltic pump, is available with a monochrome or color camera and uses a 0.5X objective. A 2 mm as well as a 5 mm flow cell are included with each instrument.
Like all other FlowCam models, the Macro uses the VisualSpreadsheet® software, enabling automated particle characterization. VisualSpreadsheet® allows for the creation of custom libraries, which the build-in pattern recognition software can use to automatically sort and group particles and provide you with concentrations and counts for all your specified particle types.
Key benefits of the FlowCam Macro
Applications
Particle Size Range | 300 µm to 5 mm |
---|---|
Magnification & Flow Cells | 0.5X objective, 2 mm and 5mm flow cells |
Camera & Images | High resolution (1920x1200 pixels) CMOS. Monochrome and color available. |
Flow Rate | 100-900 mL/minute, larger particles use lower flow rates. |
Fluidics | Not included, a high-capacity industrial peristaltic pump is sold separately |
VisualSpreadsheet® | Interactive, image-based analytical software that generates 40+ particle measurements per particle. Filter, sort, and classify data based on user-defined criteria. Create libraries to automate classification for future sample analyses. |
Included Accessories | Integrated Windows PC with VisualSpreadsheet® software, mouse and keyboard, Monitor |
Device Weight & Dimensions | H x L x W: approx. 38 cm x 45 cm x 37 cm (without pump) approx. 38 cm x 82 cm x 60 cm (with pump) |
