High Resolution ELPI®+

18.12.2018

The Dekati® High Resolution ELPI®+ (Electrical Low Pressure Impactor, HR-ELPI®+) is an advanced version of the widely use ELPI®+ instrument. The High Resolution ELPI®+ combines features of the ELPI®+ with a data inversion algorithm that gives real-time particle number size distribution in up to 500 size classes 6 nm – 10 μm. Other High Resolution ELPI®+ features include wide particle sample concentration range, robust structure and possibility to characterize chemical composition of size classified particles after the real-time measurement. The wide measurement range, superior size resolution and fast time response make the High Resolution ELPI®+  and ideal tool for a broad range of particle measurement applications.
