This system will be delivered to the USDA, ARS, JWDSRC, located in Stoneville, Mississippi. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS AND SPECIFICATIONS The JWDSRC is seeking a purchase a Malvern Spraytec Laser System from Samyak Systems. Samyak Solutions is the only vendor that designs, manufactures and sells portable laser spray droplet sizer. This system uniquely provides the capability of 0.1 - 2,000 microns to measure the atomization of a wide range of spray nozzles from vector control to typical agricultural applications. This company is the only vendor to offer the portable system to replace the obsolete system which occupied a lab room to uniquely fit the needs of USDA-ARS Crop Production Systems Research Unit, Stoneville, MS for sustainable, reliable spray application research. SPECIFICATIONS STP5311 Short bench Spraytec Laboratory System with a 950mm optical bench and a 300mm lens. Includes Malvern real-time spray sizing system for the rapid, high concentration measurement of sprays and aerosols. Includes IP65-rated Transmitter and Receiver Units mounted on a rigid X95 frame optical bench; 5wM HeNe laser light source; 36 element silicon photodiode array; optical auto-align stage; rapid data acquisition system; two output TTL triggers to control external devices; one input TTL trigger to synchronise measurements with other devices; USB connection to computer. Data acquisition rate of 2500Hz (one measurement every 0.4 milliseconds) as standard. Supplied with the Spraytec software suite, providing a user-friendly graphical interface for controlling all aspects of a spray measurement. Includes standard laboratory optical bench supports enabling the use of different laboratory accessories (STP2510, STP2213, STP2114 and STP2300), 2m USB cable, and a 1.5m power supply cable. Full measurement automation, with manual override, is provided by the use of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), which are custom-compiled by the use of a software wizard. Includes patented high concentration (Multiple Scattering) analysis; a realtime display providing a size-history of the measured spray event; data averaging and export via a simple drag-and-drop interface; data searching and sorting facilities. An integrated security system is also provided to enable System Administrators to set up user groups with differing access rights. The software can be operated as a stand-alone utility for post-measurement analysis work away from the instrument. Minimum Computer Specification: IBM compatible computer running Windows XP Professional (SP2 or higher), 2.8GHz Intel Pentium IV Processor, 1Gb RAM, 160Gb-HDD, CD-RW, complete with mouse, keyboard and 1x17 inch Flat Panel Monitor. Requires 1 free USB port. One free COM port required when using the InnovaSystems NSP3000 nasal spray actuator. 300mm Fourier lens system, covering a size range from 0.1 to 900 microns (Dv50: 0.5 to 600 microns). Optical configuration provides a maximum working distance of 150mm at 0.5 microns, increasing to greater than 1000mm above 5 microns. 950mm optical bench, providing a spray measurement zone width of 300mm and a laser height above the optical bench of 363mm. Overall system dimensions of 950mmx550mmx610mm (LxWxH). Spraytec air purge system. Provides a compressed air purge to prevent optics fouling during the measurement of large volume spray plumes. Requires a clean, oil-free compressed air supply which can provide a flow rate of up to 12 cubic metres per hour (not supplied).
