With the fully automated SPE metal.ID 5 system you can determine the chemical composition of particles from 5 µm. and larger at a rate of hundreds per hour. Thanks to the intuitive software control, you can obtain statistically relevant information after a short introductory training period. Simply insert the sample, select the relevant particle size and shape, then allow the to system identify the elemental distibution (metal.ID) at a throughput rate of 3000-6000 particles per hour. Leading you quickly to the particles contamination source.
Particle count, shape, and size from 0.5 µm. and above can be determined by using a particle size distribution with 8 customizable size classes.The SPE metal.ID 5 implements all the features of the SPE CSS plus automated identification of individual organic and inorganic particles from 5 µm. and larger. After the particles are sized and counted they are automatically selected for the integrated metal.ID (LIBS) spectroscopy and interpretation.

An integrated metal.ID spectra (LIBS) library is available for the following elements: Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Ti, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Mo, Sn, Ba, Pb, Co, Fe, V, W, over 100 alloys, and much more. With the integrated database search software the particle spectra are interpreted and metallic elements are identified. All raw data including raw images, analyzed images, particle morphology, particle stitch (merging) and spectra are stored in a “results” file.
The equipment is designed to identify contaminants larger than 5 µm. in medical devices and sterile pharmaceutical products, such as parenterals, with the use of integrated LIBS spectroscopy. Particle samples are collected for the metal.ID on standard Cellulose Nitrate, similar filter papers, or filtr.AID patches.
