PARTICLE COLLEGE 2008

We will be holding two Particle College classes in Boulder, CO in 2008 - February and August. Plan now to attend this popular class next year. Get more details, or register on our website.

Some of the relevant liquid segments include:

Introduction to Monitoring Particles in Liquids 
This presentation introduces the different types of liquid particle counting systems and discusses the pros and cons of each. Particle monitoring schemes are presented with commentary on advantages and disadvantages of each. Methods of performance verification are presented, and data is used to help provide a better understanding of calibration accuracy in these high performance products.

Advanced Liquid Monitoring  
We delve into the more difficult areas of liquid particle counting, including what happens to particle sizing when the index of refraction changes in the fluid, particle, or both. What constitutes statistical significance, and is there anything that can improve the data quality? In the remaining time, we will discuss the issues of importance to you. Bring your difficult liquid application questions and we will share our knowledge with you.
