The Mastersizer 2000 has been developed to meet industry's growing need for global comparability of results, traceability, regulatory compliance, and efficiency in the laboratory. In introducing the Mastersizer 2000, Malvern has advanced particle size analysis to the point where it is now a simple, straightforward and routine task.

Accuracy and Reproducibility

Accuracy: ± 1% on the Dv50 using the Malvern Quality Audit Standard. Instrument-to-instrument reproducibility: Better than 1% RSD on the Dv50 using the Malvern Quality Audit Standard.

Assured reproducibility

Software-driven SOPs eliminate user variability and enable global method transfer. All measurement parameters are automatically embedded in the result files and can be critically reviewed by e-mail recipients. Measurements can be replicated by following the same SOP. Broad measuring range Measures materials from 0.02µm to 2000µm.

Wide range of sample types

For the measurement of emulsions, suspensions and dry powders.

P Ease of use

Fully automated for ease of use. Designed to eliminate user-to-user variability. Reduces training requirements for new users and maximises deployment of skilled personnel.

Flexibility

Wide range of sample dispersion units. Rapid changeover between sample dispersion units with automatic configuration. 'Plug and Play' cassette system allows simultaneous connection of two sample dispersion units.

Regulatory Compliance

Full QSpec validation documentation available including compliance with 21 CFR Part 11.

User-friendly Software

Software-driven Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) eliminate user variability. An SOP-creation wizard helps users to create good measurement methods. On-line help and advice on every aspect of performing a measurement available at the click of a button. On screen instructions lead user through the measurement process. SOPs supplied for routine sample analyses. Custom Report Designer allows screen layout and printouts to be configured to suit each user. Custom calculator allows the parameters important to your application to be defined.
