Powder Selector FAQ
Q: How does the Powder Selector handle hygroscopic powders?
A: The Powder Selector features a climate-controlled chamber that maintains optimal humidity levels during analysis. Our system automatically adjusts testing parameters for hygroscopic materials, preventing moisture absorption that could skew results. Specialized algorithms compensate for any residual moisture effects.
Q: Can the Powder Selector differentiate between similar particle sizes?
A: Yes, our advanced detection system distinguishes particles with as little as 0.5 micron difference. The high-resolution optical system combined with multi-angle laser diffraction provides exceptional precision, even for powders with overlapping size distributions.

Powder Selector FAQ
Q: What maintenance does the Powder Selector require?
A: The Powder Selector requires minimal maintenance. Daily cleaning of sample paths with compressed air, weekly calibration checks using standard reference materials, and annual professional servicing ensure optimal performance. The self-diagnostic system alerts users to any required maintenance.
Q: How does the system handle cohesive powders?
A: For cohesive powders, the Powder Selector automatically activates its de-agglomeration system. This includes mechanical dispersion and optional ultrasonic treatment to separate particles before analysis. The system adjusts dispersion energy based on powder characteristics to prevent over-processing.
