The MultiScan MS 20 stability analysis system is a compact and versatile measuring instrument for the optical stability and ageing analysis of disperse multiphase mixtures, especially suspensions and emulsions.

The MultiScan MS 20 enables non-destructive and temporally as well as spatially resolved optical stability and ageing analysis of emulsions, suspensions, and foams – undiluted and under realistic storage conditions. With sample chambers in discrete measurement towers – the ScanTowers – up to six measurements can be performed at the same time, covering different observation durations and different temperatures or temperature profiles.

The software then analyses and visualises the results, such as destabilisation mechanisms – sedimentation, creaming, or flocculation – and sample parameters such as particle size.

Features of the MultiScan MS 20 dispersion stability analysis system:

• time- and position-dependent stability and ageing analysis of dispersions

• measurements at temperatures and temperature curves between -10° and 80° C

• customised temperature profiles can be set by the operator

• ports for six separately configurable sample chambers

• built-in barcode scanner for easy sample recognition

• optional hand-held scanner available

• integrated touch screen controlling all connected sample chambers
