Vasco Kin

Boost precision with the VASCO KIN particle size analyzer. Measure particle size and particle size distribution in situ using our remote, contactless optical head to avoid disturbing or contaminating samples. Plus, streamline inline and online monitoring with VASCO KIN’s real-time, time-resolved DLS nanoparticle size measurement.

  1. Faster in situ, contactless particle size measurement : No need to batch colloids. VASCO KIN’s remote optical head allows you to measure particle size and size distribution in any transparent container. This enhances inline monitoring efficiency, saves time, preserves samples, minimizes sample contamination risks, and more.
  2. Time-resolved, real-time particle analyzer : VASCO KIN offers effortless, high-resolution, time-resolved kinetic analysis, which enables the study of nanoparticle synthesis, agglomeration, and suspension stability. You can also obtain a correlogram every 200 ms and review a 2D color map of particle size distribution for in-depth insights.
  3. Easy and reliable inline monitoring : VASCO KIN integrates seamlessly into your continuous flow manufacturing processes. This boosts efficiency, reduces bottlenecks, and empowers faster throughput with greater quality control. Our lightweight remote optical head is portable and works on-site.
  4. Intuitive instrument coupling : VASCO KIN is highly compatible with other instrumentation for multiple interdependent analyses. You can also measure particle sizes in various containers, like a syringe, a sealed vial, or a synthesis reactor.
  5. Flexibility with a variety of optical heads : Measure particles ranging from 0.5 nm to 10 µm with the VASCO KIN DLS particle size analyzer. Various optical head options allow you to measure in diverse sample arrangements: in situ, in line, in cuvette, across different mediums (organic and aqueous environments), and concentrations (up to 40% wt). This versatility allows you to measure a wide range of samples, from macromolecules to emulsions or microdroplets.
