BeNano 180 Zeta Max — DLS and Zeta Potential System

173° Backscatter DLS and PALS Zeta Potential

A 50 mW 671 nm solid-state laser and APD detector deliver fast, repeatable size analysis from 0.3 nm to 15 µm. PALS provides accurate zeta potential measurement even in low-charge samples near the isoelectric point and in high-salt media.

🔦
High-Sensitivity Optics
APD detector with >70% quantum efficiency. Single-mode fiber optics for high signal-to-noise ratio. Automatic intensity adjustment prevents multiple scattering.
⚡
PALS Technology
20 Hz alternating electric field enables accurate zeta potential measurement where standard ELS fails — low-charge samples and high ionic-strength media.
🌡
Wide Temperature Control
Integrated temperature control from −15°C to 120°C. Air purge system prevents condensation at sub-zero temperatures.

RI, Concentration and Sedimentation

BeNano 180 Zeta Max goes beyond standard DLS/ELS with three patented measurement techniques. Refractive index (RI), particle concentration (LEDLS), and sedimentation sizing provide more complete characterization of complex samples.

🔭
Refractive Index (RI) Measurement
Patented wedge-shaped cuvette technique measures RI from 1.2 to 1.6 with better than 0.1% accuracy. Eliminates up to 2% size error caused by RI uncertainty in DLS.
🔢
LEDLS Concentration Analysis
Calibration-free nanoparticle concentration measurement from 1×10⁸ to 1×10¹² particles/mL. Ideal for compliance monitoring per EU nanomaterial definition (2011/696/EU).
📏
Sedimentation Sizing
Measures microparticles from 1 to 50 µm where DLS reaches its limits. Works complementarily with DLS to eliminate masking in broadly distributed samples.

What You Wonder About

DLS covers 0.3 nm to 15 µm; sedimentation covers 1 µm to 50 µm. On the BeNano 180 Zeta Max, both techniques work together to eliminate masking in broadly distributed samples.

Zeta potential measurement requires a minimum of 64 µL. DLS requires as little as 3 µL. The platinum-folded capillary cell extends electrode lifetime in high-salt media.

Yes. BeNano 180 Zeta Pro and Max models integrate with GPC/SEC and FFF systems via the BFC-1 Signal Collector accessory. The 27 µL low-volume flow cell prevents band broadening; measurement speed is 0.42 s/result.

A 1% error in dispersant refractive index leads to a 2% error in DLS-derived size. The patented RI module on BeNano 180 Zeta Max measures RI from 1.2 to 1.6 with better than 0.1% accuracy using a wedge-shaped cuvette — eliminating this error source entirely.

BAT-1 performs fully automated titration from pH 1 to 13. Each cycle delivers isoelectric point, size, and zeta potential trend data — in as little as 30 minutes per cycle. Minimal exposure to corrosive liquids improves operator safety and reduces human error.
