PARTICLE SIZING, PARTICLE COUNTING

TSI has been making particle counting instruments for 30 years. Today, our family of particle counting instruments includes a variety of Condensation Particle Counters (CPCs) that, collectively, detect particles in the range from 2.5 nm to >3 µm.

TSI also provides a comprehensive selection of instruments for sizing submicrometer and supermicrometer particles. Collectively, they measure particles in the range from 0.003 to 2000 µm.

This family of particle sizing instruments includes our well-known Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer™ and Aerodynamic Particle Sizer® spectrometers. They are used in a wide range of particle sizing research applications where the particle size doesn't exceed 20 µm.
