Will it support my application?

The IsoPharm system uses LTI’s patented probe technology to assure the best possible results from diffusely-reflecting powders. The system is free from interface limitations, so any of the LTI probes will work in conjunction with it -- and that includes both liquid probes and the unique ClariFlex probe which forces bubbles away from the absorbing gap. So, an Iso-Pharm monitor system can adapt-- from passive materials in shipping containers through slurries to bench and pilot-scale reactors. It is a raw-materials analyzer which can do double or triple duty when required.

What about support?

LTI is known for its FAST-team concept: a product manager and an application-science team help you through your initial proof-of-concept testing -- and then carry through to full commissioning. They form a team with you to be certain that your application is successful. And, LTI maintains complete support groups in North America and Europe.

What else do I need?

The IsoPharm system provides the scanner, probe and interface electronics. You can supply your own computer or we can pre-condition a computer for you.

To use the complete package in your raw material quarantine warehouse, you will need to provide some means of moving the instrument to the chemical containers -- or move the containers. The fiber optic probe allows movement up to a nominal five meters. If you wish to move the instrument, use a laboratory or utility cart -- ours or yours -- with an upper shelf at nominal waist height. The computer can rest on a lower shelf. The cart can also be used to carry a bar-code reader and printer if required, as well as supplies for intersample cleaning.

What about cleaning?

The remote sampling probe terminates in a polished, chemically passive stainless-steel tube with a sapphire window. When the sample material is powdery and not subject to electrostatic "cling", wiping three successive times with laboratory tissue will suffice. Some users vacuum the probe tip. Solvent rinsing is needed only when the test material adheres stubbornly to the metal tube.

Iso-Pharm System includes all of the items listed in the basic package description. Add options as you wish, procure a computer and prepare to experience fast, passive raw material identification right in the warehouse!
