Solutions for you
 

Different

The LUM instrument line gives you the freedom to analyze and understand virtually all aspects of dispersion dynamics under a wide range of conditions.

Measure particle size, emulsion stability, suspension stability, dispersion stability, separation, precipitation, aggregation, coagulation, flocculation, creaming, sedimentation, flotation, gelation, filter cake consolidation, dewaterability, accurate shelf-life determinations in minutes instead of months... all with one instrument if you so choose.

Powerful

The instruments are designed so you can understand and predict how your product will perform under real-world conditions. Measure how your size distribution and other dynamic stability processes respond to changes in formulation, temperature, concentration, etc., so you know how your dispersion holds up to events such as mixing, processing, pumping, storage, transportation, product application, shelf-life, lubrication, etc. All with one instrument of course.

20/20 Vision

The unique and patented STEP® (Space and Time Extinction Profiles) technology gives you a real advantage over other analytical techniques. The special light emitting source and custom ultra-high resolution detector allows you to see through, analyze and understand the most complex dispersion processes.

You know the expression a picture is worth a thousand words. In addition to exact numerical data, you receive an instantaneous and continuous visual image of your whole sample transmission profile throughout the analysis.

You can observe your entire sample in real-time and zoom in and out of any area of interest; allowing you to study and view concurrent processes occurring in different parts of your dispersion simultaneously. Every single step of the way.

Think of it as a dispersion fingerprint – unique, unbiased, detailed, always on file for you to view, analyze, study, and compare. All on a scale of microns.

Couple this with a design that lets you measure how your dispersion will perform under a myriad of external environments and you end up with an incredibly versatile instrument that not only lets you see and understand the present but also predict the future.

Putting efficiency back into analysis

Whether your dispersion is simple or complex, the LUM series is designed for easy use.

You can analyze up to 12 complex dispersions simultaneously under wide ranging concentrations (0.1 to 90 Vol %), temperatures (4 to 60 C°), viscosities (0.8 to 108 mPas), and applied shear forces.

With the unique dispersion stability conversion feature you can have accurate results now in minutes instead of months. No need to calibrate, dilute, limit yourself to only Newtonian type dispersions, etc. Just input your ideas, the instrument does the rest - simple, fast, efficient.

Intuitive

The accompanying SepView® software serves as the device controller and also as a fully functioning database for all your results. Compare any measurements, old or new, side by side. Replay any measurement in its entirety with our exclusive movie replay function, fast forward, slow it down, zoom in, zoom out, pause; anytime, anywhere.

All data and results are easily exchangeable and also transferable to office suite applications such as MS Word, Excel, WordPerfect, etc.; everything with the click of a mouse.

Support

Even the greatest product is only as good as the people that stand behind it. At LUM you will find only enthusiastic knowledgeable professionals with years of experience in industry, research, and academia; all dedicated to helping you maximize your investment. Backing you all the way, anytime, anywhere.

A real return on your investment

You will discover the LUM instruments to be likely your last investment in dispersion analysis equipment.

The clarity and accuracy of results, its versatility and easy of use virtually guarantees that it will be the most used instrument for every aspect of dispersion analysis and product quality control. And that is good, because all our instruments were designed just for that.

Think of it. What other instrument allows you to do so much with so little in so small of a space, all in one instrument. No one else.

 

LUM, it might just be the best investment you ever made.
