Ultra DI 20 Plus Particle Counter for Ultrapure Water Monitoring

The Ultra DI 20 Plus particle counter has been meticulously designed and fine-tuned to meet the demands of ultrapure water monitoring on a global scale.

By effectively counting and sizing particles as tiny as 20 nm, the Ultra DI 20 Plus system stands as a benchmark for exceptional particle detection capabilities.

It excels with its high counting efficiency, minor zero-count, consistent performance across various locations and environmental conditions, and the added benefit of not incurring extra costs for an environmental enclosure.

As a result, the UDI 20 Plus provides customers with a dependable and precise solution for liquid optical particle counting.

What sets the Ultra DI-20 Plus apart is its remarkable ability to maintain stable particle measurements within an operating temperature range of 18 to 29 °C, ensuring unparalleled data consistency and alignment between instruments.

This particle counter even offers instrument matching with less than a 20% discrepancy at concentrations exceeding 2 particles per milliliter, a vital requirement frequently demanded by the current semiconductor industry.

This product allows users to place unwavering trust in their ultrapure water (UPW) data, regardless of the specific particle counter unit users utilize.

Users have the freedom to seamlessly interchange particle counters or compare data across different locations with the confidence that the data remains consistent. This comparability extends its benefits from Fabs in the same town to Fabs spanning the globe.

Furthermore, this simplifies the logistics of annual equipment calibration since users can swap instruments within their fleet without causing disruptions or raising questions about data integrity.

The Ultra DI-20 Plus guarantees absolute precision by meticulously regulating the internal environment within the instrument case.

Regardless of where users position the unit, the UDI-20 Plus consistently generates the most accurate and reproducible 20 nm particle data achievable. Moreover, it eliminates the requirement for additional expenses related to purchasing and maintaining an environmental enclosure.
