Process Controls Corporation - CANTY Process Technology

The Canty Process Technology Bubbles, Oil, Water, Solids (BOWS) Analyzer is a compact laboratory system for microscopic, image-based analysis of Water for Injection and other process fluids.

Fluid passes through a flow cell positioned between a microscopic camera and high-intensity light source, allowing captured images to be analyzed for particle size, shape, count and concentration.

The system independently detects and analyzes solid particles, droplets and air bubbles within fluid samples.
