Backscatter capabilities

Ecotech has announced that backscatter measurements are now supplied standard for all Aurora 3000 Integrating Nephelometer.

The backscatter feature of the Aurora 3000 nephelometer is achieved through the use of a backscatter shutter mounted on the light source housing inside the cell. This shutter moves between two locations in and out of the optical path of the light source (90° to 180°) within the light sources Lambertian distribution.

The position of the backscatter shutter is controlled to within ±0.09°, and can be adjusted to achieve other cutoff angles if required for more advanced analysis of backscatter.

The ability to remove and measure the entire light source including the backscatter with the one module has been applauded by a number of customers using the instruments for research applications.
