The Insitec Wet particle size analyzers use laser diffraction technology to measure particles in the size range 0.1 to 2500 µm in emulsions, suspensions and slurries. Insitec Wet can be configured to suit practically every wet particulate process, delivering real-time monitoring and control 24/7, with options for:
- Gas or dust zoned hazardous environments.
- Fully automated concentration control.
- Pharmaceutical processes.
- Customized Configuration
- Partnered Solutions
This particle size analyzers deliver fully automated real-time - or manual at-line - size measurement of particulates in batch or continuous wet processes. They are used to monitor and control suspensions, emulsions and slurries in a number of industries, from hot sticky highly concentrated mineral streams to dilute lipid pharmaceutical emulsions. To ensure representative sampling, process interfaces are tailored to meet customer needs, whether pilot scale or hundreds of tonnes per hour.
Insitec Wet Features:
- Base model hardware manufactured to GAMP5 standards and compatible with CIP/SIP requirements to meet specific manufacturing specifications.
- Easy-to-use software and fully automated operation to minimize training requirements and release operator time.
- Integration with existing control platforms to simplify development of automated control protocols.
- High reliability of >95% with little downtime, minimal maintenance and maximum ROI.

Laser-Diffraction Particle Sizing Pays Dividends for Wet-Process Monitoring
Laser diffraction is a proven technology for wet particle sizing. This case study describes the use of real-time particle size measurements for emulsification-process monitoring. Timely process analysis makes it possible to find, set and control operating conditions at the pilot or for commercial-scale use. In research and development this translates directly into greater experimental productivity; in production it results in increased throughput, rapid product changeover, less waste and lower energy use. Typically these gains in efficiency rapidly pay back the cost of the analyser.
Reviewing a Decade of Online Particle Sizing
Zementwerk Berlin GmbH & Co KG has been using Insitec on-line laser diffraction particle sizing (Malvern Instruments) systems to optimize cement production for more than a decade. This collaborative article reviews the company’s experience of real-time particle sizing, examining the implementation of closed loop control and the economic benefits that advanced control strategies have delivered. These include an increase in plant throughput of 2%. The use of on-line analysis in the production of ‘environmentally friendly’ slag cements is a particular focus.
Implementing PAT and QbD
As the pharmaceutical industry implements PAT and QbD, their symbiotic nature becomes increasingly obvious. Both are catalysts towards the longer term goals of continuous operation and real-time release - the realization of a transformed way of working. This article reviews changing practice within the pharmaceutical industry using the example of real-time particle size analysis to explore the analytical solutions needed and the benefits they deliver.
