PDPA System 1-Component

Product Info
Accessories

This pre-configured single-component PDPA system gets you up and running in a hurry. It is an entry level system providing all size data along with one component of velocity data. The fiberoptic transmitter probe allows a multitude of fringe spacings and beam waist sizes when optional beam expander and focusing lenses are used. The 110 mm receiver probe is our most popular unit. Both probes are attached to convenient rotating mounts for easy setup. Processing electronics have been pre-selected and configured for a wide range of size and velocity measurements.

This system can easily be upgraded to a two-component PDPA system. Since traversing, seeding, and data processing requirements will vary with the application, no traverses, particle generators, or computer is included here.

3-Axis Heavy-Duty Traverse System

TSI Heavy Duty Three Axis (3D) traverse system, Model T3DH or T3DHE More Information

Traverse Accessories for PDPA - Traverse Accessories for PDPA

Traverse accessories help the user get the most productivity out of their TSI traverse, while enhancing operating safety. Casters permit the traverse to be easily moved from place to place. Foundation brackets rigidly attach the base frame to the floor to prevent tipping when floor is uneven, in earthquake-prone areas, or when the traverse is unevenly loaded.

Rails for PDPA

TSI Rails provide the most flexible and sturdy support system for any PDPA system.
Various lengths are available, from 0.5 m to 2.0 m, to allow the user to tailor the system to the specific probes and lens focal lengths used.

Mount Kits for PDPA

TSI Mounting Kits for PDPA provide the rugged but precise mounting base needed for today's PDPA systems.
Fixed and adjustable mounts are available for 1D, 2D, and 3D system needs.
Portability and multi-system use are required of modern phase Doppler systems.
Easy adjustment and long-term stability of the TSI Mount Kits allow the user to obtain maximum performance from their PDPA system for every measurement situation.

Hardware Kits for PDPA

TSI Hardware Kits for PDPA provide the rugged but precise mounting structure needed for today's PDPA systems. Corner brackets and various length rails are available to customize the assembly to the measurement needs. Portability and multi-system use is required of modern phase Doppler systems. Fast setup and long-term stability of the TSI Hardware Kits allow users to obtain maximum performance from their PDPA systems for every measurement situation.

72mm Fiberoptic Receiver Probe - RV70

The TSI RV 70 Series Phase Doppler Receiver has optimized optical design for the most reliable phase Doppler measurements over the widest dynamic range. The 72 mm optical aperture allows collection of signals even from a wide range of droplet sizes, with a smaller package size. Optimized optical design, including a non-integer detector spacing, allows phase Doppler systems based on this receiver to reject low-reliability signals from the incorrect scattering component.

106mm Fiberoptic Receiver Probe - RV100 Series

The TSI RV 100 Series Phase Doppler Receiver has optimized optical design for the most reliable phase Doppler measurements over the widest dynamic range. The 106 mm optical aperture allows collection of signals even from small droplets in dense sprays, at long stand-offs, and even with reduced laser power. Optimized optical design, including a non-integer detector spacing, allow phase Doppler systems based on this receiver to reject low-reliability signals from the incorrect scattering component.

70mm Transmitting Probe - TM Series

The "TM" Series Transmitting Probes are the ideal choice for phase Doppler measurements. They are compact, user-friendly, and provide a wide variety of fringe spacings and waist sizes. This is achieved using TSI's unique XPD50-I internal beam expander/contractor and an assortment of optional focusing lenses from 250 mm focal length to 1000 mm focal length. The TM series probes are equipped with a convenient rotating mount and sliding base. Beam steering and fiber polishing can be performed by the user, with no need to return the unit to the factory. This is a key advantage, particularly when working with high-power, multi-Watt, water-cooled lasers.
