Fritsch GmbH - Vibratory Sieve Shaker analysette 3, Model PRO

For quantitative particle size analysis of dry samples and suspensions of all kind by dry and wet sieving with moven test sieves or micro precision sieves, convertible to micro mill.

Typical fields of application:
The vibratory Sieve Shakers analysette 3 PRO and SPARTAN are the ideal instruments for determining quantitative particle size analysis by the well-known tried and trusted method of sieving. Particle size distribution of all kinds solids samples and suspensions can be measured by dry and wet sieving. The sieving process can be carried out with woven analytical sieves or micro precision sieves. The modular system of the analysette 3 allows for easy conversion to vibratory micro mill pulverisette 0 for milling and homogenizing small amounts of sample material.

Method of operation:
The analysette 3 is a "shaking sieve" system in the classic sense, with an electromagnetic drive in the base which vibrates the sieves vertically. The material to be sieved is propelled upwards periodically from the woven sieve cloth, as it returns to the mesh of the sieve it is forced through the apertures to the collecting pan located on the base.
The regulated vertical action produces optimum material sizes for sieving and ensures an even distribution of the material over the entire sieve mesh. As there are no centrifugal effects, all forces act directly in the separating process of the sieves, almost regardless of the level acceleration.

Features of performance:

• Digital adjustment and regulation of amplitude: AMPCONTROL
• Can be integrated into test equipment inspection in accordance with ISO 9001 (Sieve shaker can be calibrated as a testing instrument)
• Auto-validation of the sieving process via RS232 and AUTOSIEVE for WINDOWS™ through on-line comparsion of the desired and actual amplitude.
• up to 9 sieve programmes which can be saved and recalled
• no additional weight necessary for small samples
• Micro mode and micro-intermettent mode for micro precision sieving
• EASYTWIST sieve stack bracing included in the price
• Power-save function (low-current drain mode)
• Foil-type keypad IP65 fitted ergonomically, splash-proof and precise digital timer
• Up to 10 test sieves and a sieve pan with 50 mm height each can be used in one working cycle.
• safety tested (CE mark) and 2 year guarantee

Equipment:
The Vibratory Sieve Shaker analysette 3 is delivered without clamping lid, test sieves and sieve pan (which are available in different types and must be ordered as accessories), incl. control and evaluation programme AUTOSIEVE for WINDOWS™ standard version for test purposes limited for 180 days.
The sieve tensioning system TorqueMaster which enables an automatic, reproducible tensioning of the sieve stack on the sieve shaker is also as an accessory available,
