Single Particle Explorer CSS (SPE-i CSS) |
CSS: Count, Size, Shape
The SPE-i CSS measures the number, shape, and size of particles ranging from 1 - 40,000 µm on filter membranes. This device provides reproducible results using fully automated image acquisition and analysis/documentation units. The particles appearing on the filters are used to evaluate the components' cleanliness levels.

The particle monitor provides size distribution data for particles 1 µm and larger: size, number and shape.
|
Application |
 |
The SPE-i CSS is capable of analyzing with varied norms and regulations. The SPE delivers validated documentation results for component cleanliness applications. Solid contamination is the main factor that causes failures, misfunction, and decay in hydraulic systems. |
|
|
The SPE-i CSS measures contamination levels by determining the particle count per unit of volume in a liquid (ISO 4407:2002). |
|
|
This number can then be classified in Contamination Classes according to international standards. The most popular standards for determining Contamination Classes for hydraulic systems are ISO 4407:2002, and NAS 1638 (under revision). |

Image analysis |
Particles – Number, size:
Feret's diameter (longest dimension)
Length, width, area
Particles – Shape:
Angularity, rectangularity, convexity, elongation, fibrousness

|
|
The system is fully automated with features such as: auto-focus, illumination feedback, binarization threshold, and a sample/objective changer making it is easy to use.
